In my cluster I have creaetd 2 nodepools. One of them I named pool-monitoring and is dedicated for monitoring (Grafana, Prometheus). I labeled the monitoring nodepool as follows: doctl kubernetes cluster node-pool update <cluster-id|cluster-name> <pool-id|pool-name> --label <key=value> After running the command kubectl get nodes --show-lables I can seen this: doks.digitalocean.com/node-pool=pool-monitoring
2 questions: should I put this line nodeSelector: nodeSelector: docs.digitalocean.com/nodepool: pool-monitoring Should this line be in the statefullset or deployment file?
2nd question: If I update the kubernetes cluster will I lose hte labels?

Hi @greggyvanmeel
In order to assign a Pod to the node with the labe, you need to specify a
nodeSelector
field in thePodSpec
DigitalOcean Managed Kubernetes provides persistent node pool labels. Adding a custom label to a node pool ensures that the label is propagated to the worker nodes in the node pool after replacement or upgrade.
kubectl label node <node-name> <label-key>-
kubectl taint node <node-name> <taint-key>-
Note the trailing
-
on the key; this causeskubectl
to delete the label or taint.
