We are using Heat + Kubernetes (V0.19) to manage our apps. When do rolling update, sometimes container staring will always fail on a node but kubelet on the node will always retry but always fail. So the updating will hang there which is not the behavior we expected.

I found that using "kubectl delete node" to remove the node can avoid pods scheduled to that node. But in our env, the node to be deleted may have running pods on it.

So my question is: After using "kubectl delete node" to remove the node, will the pods on that node still worked correctly ?
