kubernetes: Demystify warning about failed readiness probe

9/16/2019

I am seeing this in my kubectl get events --watch output

46m         Warning   Unhealthy                Pod                       Readiness probe failed: Get http://10.1.43.253:15020/healthz/ready: dial tcp 10.1.43.253:15020: connect: connection refused

The log does not mention what pod is failing to provide its readines probe. (although as it becomes apparent, this comes from istio)

Using GKE with version v1.12.7-gke.25 on both masters and nodes, on top of istio.
