Health Check modification in OpenShift 3.11

10/20/2020

I need to temporarly disable a Liveness Probe in a production environment on Openshift 3.11. Is it necessary to re-deploy the pods or is it a hot-plug modification?

Thanx in advance

Unfortunately, there is no feature at the moment to disable probes dynamically. Look this discussion for more details, https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/issues/57187 If you want to disable it, you need to redeploy the pod without probes config.
