StatefulSets support two pod management policies:
OrderedReady
(default)Parallel
When using
Parallel
rolling updates are still managed 1-by-1 (likeOrderedReady
) but scale up/down are parallel. This means that in the event of a cluster cold start, store-gateway instances can be started all at once instead of waiting 1-by-1.I've done several manual tests in our test cluster and
Parallel
looks working fine. Manual tests done:IMPORTANT: the pod management policy is one of these settings that cannot be changed to an existing StatefulSet. This means that to apply these changes the StatefulSet must be deleted and re-created, causing a (short) outage in the read path. Considering the blocks storage is not production ready yet, I would suggest to fix this pod management policy now instead of living with some unwanted legacy.
