Should I disable swap memory on K3s?

k3s, k3OS, and k3d

I’ve seen on all the base Kubernetes install instructions they recommend disabling swap memory on each server. But I don’t see any similar recommendation to disable swap with K3s instructions.

Does anyone know if swap should be disabled on all nodes with K3s?

sudo swapoff -a

You probably figure this out by now, but yes you should disable swap on your hosts even with K3s.

Thanks Meza, I disabled it anyway, but wasn’t sure if the K3s installed would do that automatically.
