Router pods scheduled to same node on HCP with SingleReplica availability policies leading to eviction loop
Issue
- In a
Hosted Control Plane (HCP)cluster whereinfrastructureAvailabilityPolicyset to SingleReplica, ingress router pods are repeatedly scheduled onto the same node. - The
Ingress Operatordetects this pod placement as invalid (expecting router pods to be distributed across nodes) and continuously evicts the router pods. - This results in an
endless eviction and rescheduling loop, preventing ingress from stabilizing and causing degraded or unavailable ingress functionality.
Environment
- Red Hat OpenShift Container Platform (RHOCP) 4
- Hosted Control Plane (HCP)
