MachinePool is the Schema for the machinepools API.
5 top-level fields · last changed in Cluster API v1.10.0
APIVersion defines the versioned schema of this representation of an object. Servers should convert recognized schemas to the latest internal value, and may reject unrecognized values. More info: https://git.k8s.io/community/contributors/devel/sig-architecture/api-conventions.md#resources
Kind is a string value representing the REST resource this object represents. Servers may infer this from the endpoint the client submits requests to. Cannot be updated. In CamelCase. More info: https://git.k8s.io/community/contributors/devel/sig-architecture/api-conventions.md#types-kinds
spec is the desired state of MachinePool.
clusterName is the name of the Cluster this object belongs to.
failureDomains is the list of failure domains this MachinePool should be attached to.
minReadySeconds is the minimum number of seconds for which a newly created machine instances should be ready. Defaults to 0 (machine instance will be considered available as soon as it is ready)
providerIDList are the identification IDs of machine instances provided by the provider. This field must match the provider IDs as seen on the node objects corresponding to a machine pool's machine instances.
replicas is the number of desired machines. Defaults to 1. This is a pointer to distinguish between explicit zero and not specified.
template describes the machines that will be created.
metadata is the standard object's metadata. More info: https://git.k8s.io/community/contributors/devel/sig-architecture/api-conventions.md#metadata
annotations is an unstructured key value map stored with a resource that may be set by external tools to store and retrieve arbitrary metadata. They are not queryable and should be preserved when modifying objects. More info: http://kubernetes.io/docs/user-guide/annotations
labels is a map of string keys and values that can be used to organize and categorize (scope and select) objects. May match selectors of replication controllers and services. More info: http://kubernetes.io/docs/user-guide/labels
spec is the specification of the desired behavior of the machine. More info: https://git.k8s.io/community/contributors/devel/sig-architecture/api-conventions.md#spec-and-status
bootstrap is a reference to a local struct which encapsulates fields to configure the Machine’s bootstrapping mechanism.
configRef is a reference to a bootstrap provider-specific resource that holds configuration details. The reference is optional to allow users/operators to specify Bootstrap.DataSecretName without the need of a controller.
API version of the referent.
If referring to a piece of an object instead of an entire object, this string should contain a valid JSON/Go field access statement, such as desiredState.manifest.containers[2]. For example, if the object reference is to a container within a pod, this would take on a value like: "spec.containers{name}" (where "name" refers to the name of the container that triggered the event) or if no container name is specified "spec.containers[2]" (container with index 2 in this pod). This syntax is chosen only to have some well-defined way of referencing a part of an object.

dataSecretName is the name of the secret that stores the bootstrap data script. If nil, the Machine should remain in the Pending state.
clusterName is the name of the Cluster this object belongs to.
failureDomain is the failure domain the machine will be created in. Must match a key in the FailureDomains map stored on the cluster object.
infrastructureRef is a required reference to a custom resource offered by an infrastructure provider.

nodeDeletionTimeout defines how long the controller will attempt to delete the Node that the Machine hosts after the Machine is marked for deletion. A duration of 0 will retry deletion indefinitely. Defaults to 10 seconds.
nodeDrainTimeout is the total amount of time that the controller will spend on draining a node. The default value is 0, meaning that the node can be drained without any time limitations. NOTE: NodeDrainTimeout is different from `kubectl drain --timeout`
nodeVolumeDetachTimeout is the total amount of time that the controller will spend on waiting for all volumes to be detached. The default value is 0, meaning that the volumes can be detached without any time limitations.
providerID is the identification ID of the machine provided by the provider. This field must match the provider ID as seen on the node object corresponding to this machine. This field is required by higher level consumers of cluster-api. Example use case is cluster autoscaler with cluster-api as provider. Clean-up logic in the autoscaler compares machines to nodes to find out machines at provider which could not get registered as Kubernetes nodes. With cluster-api as a generic out-of-tree provider for autoscaler, this field is required by autoscaler to be able to have a provider view of the list of machines. Another list of nodes is queried from the k8s apiserver and then a comparison is done to find out unregistered machines and are marked for delete. This field will be set by the actuators and consumed by higher level entities like autoscaler that will be interfacing with cluster-api as generic provider.
readinessGates specifies additional conditions to include when evaluating Machine Ready condition. This field can be used e.g. by Cluster API control plane providers to extend the semantic of the Ready condition for the Machine they control, like the kubeadm control provider adding ReadinessGates for the APIServerPodHealthy, SchedulerPodHealthy conditions, etc. Another example are external controllers, e.g. responsible to install special software/hardware on the Machines; they can include the status of those components with a new condition and add this condition to ReadinessGates. NOTE: This field is considered only for computing v1beta2 conditions. NOTE: In case readinessGates conditions start with the APIServer, ControllerManager, Scheduler prefix, and all those readiness gates condition are reporting the same message, when computing the Machine's Ready condition those readinessGates will be replaced by a single entry reporting "Control plane components: " + message. This helps to improve readability of conditions bubbling up to the Machine's owner resource / to the Cluster).
conditionType refers to a condition with matching type in the Machine's condition list. If the conditions doesn't exist, it will be treated as unknown. Note: Both Cluster API conditions or conditions added by 3rd party controllers can be used as readiness gates.
polarity of the conditionType specified in this readinessGate. Valid values are Positive, Negative and omitted. When omitted, the default behaviour will be Positive. A positive polarity means that the condition should report a true status under normal conditions. A negative polarity means that the condition should report a false status under normal conditions.
version defines the desired Kubernetes version. This field is meant to be optionally used by bootstrap providers.
status is the observed state of MachinePool.
availableReplicas is the number of available replicas (ready for at least minReadySeconds) for this MachinePool.
bootstrapReady is the state of the bootstrap provider.
conditions define the current service state of the MachinePool.
lastTransitionTime is the last time the condition transitioned from one status to another. This should be when the underlying condition changed. If that is not known, then using the time when the API field changed is acceptable.
message is a human readable message indicating details about the transition. This field may be empty.
reason is the reason for the condition's last transition in CamelCase. The specific API may choose whether or not this field is considered a guaranteed API. This field may be empty.
severity provides an explicit classification of Reason code, so the users or machines can immediately understand the current situation and act accordingly. The Severity field MUST be set only when Status=False.
status of the condition, one of True, False, Unknown.
type of condition in CamelCase or in foo.example.com/CamelCase. Many .condition.type values are consistent across resources like Available, but because arbitrary conditions can be useful (see .node.status.conditions), the ability to deconflict is important.
failureMessage indicates that there is a problem reconciling the state, and will be set to a descriptive error message. Deprecated: This field is deprecated and is going to be removed in the next apiVersion. Please see https://github.com/kubernetes-sigs/cluster-api/blob/main/docs/proposals/20240916-improve-status-in-CAPI-resources.md for more details.
failureReason indicates that there is a problem reconciling the state, and will be set to a token value suitable for programmatic interpretation. Deprecated: This field is deprecated and is going to be removed in the next apiVersion. Please see https://github.com/kubernetes-sigs/cluster-api/blob/main/docs/proposals/20240916-improve-status-in-CAPI-resources.md for more details.
infrastructureReady is the state of the infrastructure provider.
nodeRefs will point to the corresponding Nodes if it they exist.

observedGeneration is the latest generation observed by the controller.
phase represents the current phase of cluster actuation.
readyReplicas is the number of ready replicas for this MachinePool. A machine is considered ready when the node has been created and is "Ready".
replicas is the most recently observed number of replicas.
unavailableReplicas is the total number of unavailable machine instances targeted by this machine pool. This is the total number of machine instances that are still required for the machine pool to have 100% available capacity. They may either be machine instances that are running but not yet available or machine instances that still have not been created. Deprecated: This field is deprecated and is going to be removed in the next apiVersion.

v1beta2 groups all the fields that will be added or modified in MachinePool's status with the V1Beta2 version.
availableReplicas is the number of available replicas for this MachinePool. A machine is considered available when Machine's Available condition is true.
conditions represents the observations of a MachinePool's current state. Known condition types are Available, BootstrapConfigReady, InfrastructureReady, MachinesReady, MachinesUpToDate, ScalingUp, ScalingDown, Remediating, Deleting, Paused.
lastTransitionTime is the last time the condition transitioned from one status to another. This should be when the underlying condition changed. If that is not known, then using the time when the API field changed is acceptable.
message is a human readable message indicating details about the transition. This may be an empty string.
observedGeneration represents the .metadata.generation that the condition was set based upon. For instance, if .metadata.generation is currently 12, but the .status.conditions[x].observedGeneration is 9, the condition is out of date with respect to the current state of the instance.
reason contains a programmatic identifier indicating the reason for the condition's last transition. Producers of specific condition types may define expected values and meanings for this field, and whether the values are considered a guaranteed API. The value should be a CamelCase string. This field may not be empty.
status of the condition, one of True, False, Unknown.
type of condition in CamelCase or in foo.example.com/CamelCase.
readyReplicas is the number of ready replicas for this MachinePool. A machine is considered ready when Machine's Ready condition is true.
upToDateReplicas is the number of up-to-date replicas targeted by this MachinePool. A machine is considered up-to-date when Machine's UpToDate condition is true.
