How to allocate redis-sentinel pods on different nodes?


I'm running the redis chart (https://artifacthub.io/packages/helm/bitnami/redis/15.7.0) as a dependency of a custom chart. I enabled sentinel, then the pods are running two containers (redis and sentinel). I'm using the default values for the chart and I defined 4 replicas. The cluster have 10 nodes and I notice that three redis-sentinel's pods run on a single node and only one runs in another node:

myapp-redis-node-0    2/2    Running    8d     ip    k8s-appname-ctw9v
myapp-redis-node-1    2/2    Running    34d    ip    k8s-appname-ctw9v
myapp-redis-node-2    2/2    Running    34d    ip    k8s-appname-ctw9v
myapp-redis-node-3    2/2    Running    34d    ip    k8s-appname-crm3k

This is the affinity section for the pod's:

spec:
  affinity:
    podAntiAffinity:
      preferredDuringSchedulingIgnoredDuringExecution:
      - podAffinityTerm:
          labelSelector:
            matchLabels:
              app.kubernetes.io/component: node
              app.kubernetes.io/instance: myapp
              app.kubernetes.io/name: redis
          namespaces:
          - test
          topologyKey: kubernetes.io/hostname
        weight: 1

How I can do to have each pod on diferent nodes?

Thanks!


Solution

  • Thank you all for your answers. Finally I solved it with:

    spec:
      affinity:
        podAntiAffinity:
          requiredDuringSchedulingIgnoredDuringExecution:
          - labelSelector:
              matchLabels:
                app.kubernetes.io/component: node
                app.kubernetes.io/instance: myapp
                app.kubernetes.io/name: redis
            namespaces:
            - test
            topologyKey: kubernetes.io/hostname
    

    BTW, this is generated automatically by the chart by setting in values for master and replicas (I'm using v15.7.0):
