I'm using RKE on some local metal instances. If I kill a node (say, unplug it), kubectl
doesn't respond to API requests anymore. It times out after 60sec.
What should I look for? FWIW, the IP listed in .kube/config
isn't the node that is currently dead.
$ time kubectl get nodes
Error from server (Timeout): the server was unable to return a response in
the time allotted, but may still be processing the request (get nodes)
This means the kubernetes cluster is useless if one node goes down, which isn't a great thing.
I'm using Calico/Flannel/canal, nginx-ingress, and metallb.
