istio-pilot pod on minikube kubernetes cluster is always in Pending state. Increased CPU=4 and memory=8GB. Still the status of istio-pilot pod is Pending.
Is specific change required to run istio on minikube other than the ones mentioned in documentation?
Resolved the issue . Im running minikube with Virtual box and running minikube with higher memory and CPU does not reflect until minikube is deleted and started with new parameters. Without this it was resulting in Insufficient memory.
I saw istio-pilot in 1.1 rc3 consume a lot of CPU and was in Pending state due to the following message in kubectl describe <istio-pilot pod name> -n=istio-system:
Warning FailedScheduling 1m (x25 over 3m) default-scheduler 0/2 nodes are available:
1 Insufficient cpu, 1 node(s) had taints that the pod didn't tolerate.I was able to reduce it by doing --set pilot.resources.requests.cpu=30m when installing istio using helm.
