I wish you well with your decision to prod the bear, lol.

To be fair, my kubernetes experience has been with what I expect were 
sub-optimal deployments.  One definitely was - it was a packaged NMS from a 
major networking vendor and the vendor had it setup with no persistent storage, 

























































so if the box ever rebooted the whole network needed to be rediscovered. 
Asshats.

The other was an IT environment at a previous employer, but it was setup by 
someone who liked to twiddle every knob.  IIRC it was distributed over 3 
physical sites for redundancy.  If there was a knob then he'd tweak it - even 
if it had a big label saying "Don't touch unless you know what you're doing". 
Needless to say it had constant problems and eventually got replaced with a 
docker swarm (also distributed) that pretty much worked as expected.

Fingers crossed you have a smoother ride with it :-)
