Background: I'm trying to set up a Bitcoin Core regtest pod on Google Cloud Platform. I borrowed some code from https://gist.github.com/zquestz/0007d1ede543478d44556280fdf238c9, editing it so that instead of using Bitcoin ABC (a different client implementation), it uses Bitcoin Core instead, and changed the RPC username and password to both be "test". I also added some command arguments for the docker-entrypoint.sh script to forward to bitcoind, the daemon for the nodes I am running. When attempting to deploy the following three YAML files, the dashboard in "workloads" shows bitcoin has not having minimum availability. Getting the pod to deploy correctly is important so I can send RPC commands to the Load Balancer. Attached below are my YAML files being used. I am not very familiar with Kubernetes, and I'm doing a research project on scalability which entails running RPC commands against this pod. Ask for relevant logs and I will provide them in seperate pastebins. Right now, I'm only running three machines on my cluster, as I'm am still setting this up. The zone is us-east1-d, machine type is n1-standard-2.

Question: Given these files below, what is causing GCP Kubernetes Engine to respond with "Does not have minimum availability", and how can this be fixed?
