Node Monitoring Pod

Node monitor pod runs on all Kubernetes nodes, such as master and worker nodes to periodically check the operating state of other nodes. The nodes might become unreachable due to network issue or hardware transient issue.

Depending on the operating state of nodes, the node monitor pod switches to different modes. SMF uses nodemonitor CLI command in Global Configuration mode to switch between the modes.

The following configuration section provides more information on the command and modes.
