Question

Load balancer name keept getting reset

Posted on January 10, 2020
Load Balancing Networking Kubernetes
Asked by Remco Haszing

In my project I have 2 Kubernetes clusters, production and development. For each clusters I have a load balancer named production and development respectively.

Often when I look back, I notice the name of the development load balancer is renamed to its original value (the initially generated hash name). This issue does not exist for production.

What could be causing this?

This can be set with the service.beta.kubernetes.io.do-loadbalancer-name annotation on the ingress controller.

When using the ingress-nginx Helm chart, use --set-string 'controller.service.annotations.service\.beta\.kubernetes\.io/do-loadbalancer-name=your-value'
