Rebalancing or rescheduling pods on OpenShift

Solution In Progress - Updated -

Issue

  • Sometimes there is quite a load on some nodes. Is it possible to redistribute pods from one node to another?
  • In an environment with anti-affinity rules, does the replication controller kill & launch replicas if the current replica set no longer meet these rules? For example, if you took a node offline for maintenance, evacuating the node, then later brought the node back. Would the replicas return to this node, to rebalance the scheduling rules?

Environment

  • OpenShift Container Platform 3.3, 3.4, 3.5, 3.6, 3.7, 3.9
