Hello, for question that might ask “Make sure that the pod is scheduled on master/controlplane node” do we have different options beside “nodeName: controlplane”? can we used podselector?

Tej_Singh_Rana:
Hello, @dean madani
If in the question specifically talking about labels then you can.
If it’s straightforward and sign of labels, then you can use nodeName field.
and rest depends on question.

Vinod Kumar Nair:
hi @dean madani, agree with @Tej_Singh_Rana …nodeName is the easiest and quickiest option to schedule a pod on a specific node, provided there are no other constraints around the given question. . If not then you can use taints/tolerations or node affinity as required

Jitendra Trivedia:
@dean madani agree with @Tej_Singh_Rana @Vinod Kumar Nair , By default , on cluster’s master node have default taint applied to NoSchedule, You have to untaint it or reapplied to as per requirement.
