Deploy different instana-agent.customresource.yaml in k8s worker nodes

Hi,

Based on the fact that not all the worker nodes run the same applications and ca be different between each others, it can be needed yo deploy different configuration.yaml files based on the needs.

For example, put some custom tags inside some specific hosts, enable or disable some plugins, setting some credentials only to those nodes where the applications wanted are running and so on.

Is there any possibility to work on the request being able to deploy different configuration files per node?

    Hi,

    I do not agree with the status and the feedback provided. Based on your statement: "typically in Kubernetes nodes have no special meaning since the scheduler can move workloads between nodes freely. This is not under consideration." it is somehow general and does not fit with our current k8s architecture.

    We have some worker nodes to be used for specific purposes (Monitoring, NoSQL, BSS Stack and so on) setting with affinity / anti-affinity which pods are deployed here and there.

    Please reconsider the status of this idea on the same way we can define different instana configuration file based on dockerzied or services architecture.

    BR

    Dear Customer,
    We thank you so much for submitting an idea and, in doing this, we appreciate your support in improving Instana product.
    Unfortunately this requirement is not currently in our roadmap and will not be for the next 12/18 months.
    If this feature is still a priority for your Instana implementation at that time, please reopen it to bring up to our attention and we will reevaluate for its inclusion.

    Additional information: typically in Kubernetes nodes have no special meaning since the scheduler can move workloads between nodes freely. This is not under consideration.


    Best regards
