Discussion:
Is this fixed via the merged PR?
There are two issues: one is fixed by and another is fixed by , however it requires also new release of Heapster which hasn't been done yet so that I haven't closed this issue.
related PRs ,
It looks like you're on top of this, but it's been failing pretty frequently this morning as well, all on "Horizontal pod autoscaling [Skipped][Autoscaling Suite] should scale from 5 pods to 3 pods and from 3 to 1 (scale resource: Memory)"
The issue is about cluster size autoscaling tests, which haven't failed since was merged. I'll close this issue tomorrow once there will be no more failures. Also there is another issue with Horizontal Pod Autoscaling test - tracking issue
The test is stable now so closing the issue.
This problem is occurring again:
blocking merges; raising to P0
looks like was merged to hopefully address this. Lowering to p1.
Yep, disabled the test, tracking issue and there is fix in flight
Closing as is resolved.
