LogScale Kubernetes Pod Scaling
LogScale pods in this architecture are designed to have a
one-to-one relationship with the underlying EKS node. However, the Humio
Operator does not currently support autoscaling operations while the
underlying Kubernetes nodes do. In most cluster sizes, the desired count
of pods is less than the maximum number of kubernetes nodes for that tier.
For example, in a small:advanced architecture, the
desired digest pod count is six while the maximum EKS digest node count is
twelve. In this situation, you can expand kubernetes by updating the node
count in cluster_size.tpl to a new target count that
should not exceed the maximum EKS node count.
After saving cluster_size.tpl, run:
terraform apply -target module.logscale -var-file $TFVAR_FILE
