The point of zones is to spread replicas between different zones in order to improve HA (for instance, define a zone per rack, thereby ensuring that taking down a rack doesn't take down your app that's scaled across multiple zones). This isn't what you want though. And you'd certainly never put a zone in a nodeselector for an RC if you're trying to scale it to multiple zones. For the purpose of separating the tiers of your app, you would still want to use a nodeselector per DC or RC and corresponding node labels. There's no other way to designate where you want the pods from different RCs to land. You just don't want "zones". > This stuff is scattered throughout the docs: > > > https://docs.openshift.org/latest/admin_guide/manage_nodes.html#updating-labels-on-nodes > > https://docs.openshift.org/latest/dev_guide/deployments.html#assigning-pods-to-specific-nodes > > I hope this helps. > > >> >> >> Content of /etc/ansible/hosts of my Ansible hosting VM: >> >> [masters] >> >> sv5305.selfdeploy.loc >> >> # host group for nodes, includes region info >> >> [nodes] >> >> sv5305.selfdeploy.loc openshift_node_labels="{'region': 'infra', 'zone': >> 'default'}" openshift_schedulable=false >> >> sv5306.selfdeploy.loc openshift_node_labels="{'region': 'primary', >> 'zone': 'east'}" >> >> sv5307.selfdeploy.loc openshift_node_labels="{'region': 'primary', >> 'zone': 'west'}" >> >> >> >> Thank you in advance. >> >> >> >> Regards, >> >> >> >> Olga >> >> >> >> _______________________________________________ >> dev mailing list >> dev@lists.openshift.redhat.com >> http://lists.openshift.redhat.com/openshiftmm/listinfo/dev >> >> > > _______________________________________________ > dev mailing list > dev@lists.openshift.redhat.com > http://lists.openshift.redhat.com/openshiftmm/listinfo/dev > >
