Launch - Lab 11.2 [External IP Always <Pending>]

agumorales

Hi I'm following up the training and after modifying the ngnix ingress controller with the DeamoSet object kind and deploy it.

The external Ip is never provisioned, I waited more than 30 minutes (eventually the lab expired)
Is there any other tool we can use to troubleshoot the external calls to any of the cloud providers to see if this is a provisioning issue?

Thanks
Agu

Hi @agumorales,

The pending state of the external IP address of the LoadBalancer service type is expected in the lab environment, and it can also be witnessed in earlier exercises.
In a cloud Kubernetes distribution an actual load balancer is assigned to the service and the external IP address is populated with the load balancer's IP address.
