maxSurge is the maximum number of machines that can be scheduled above the desired number of machines. Value can be an absolute number (ex: 5) or a percentage of desired machines (ex: 10%). This can not be 0 if MaxUnavailable is 0. Absolute number is calculated from percentage by rounding up. Defaults to 1. Example: when this is set to 30%, the new MachineSet can be scaled up immediately when the rolling update starts, such that the total number of old and new machines do not exceed 130% of desired machines. Once old machines have been killed, new MachineSet can be scaled up further, ensuring that total number of machines running at any time during the update is at most 130% of desired machines.

maxUnavailable

maxUnavailable is the maximum number of machines that can be unavailable during the update. Value can be an absolute number (ex: 5) or a percentage of desired machines (ex: 10%). Absolute number is calculated from percentage by rounding down. This can not be 0 if MaxSurge is 0. Defaults to 0. Example: when this is set to 30%, the old MachineSet can be scaled down to 70% of desired machines immediately when the rolling update starts. Once new machines are ready, old MachineSet can be scaled down further, followed by scaling up the new MachineSet, ensuring that the total number of machines available at all times during the update is at least 70% of desired machines.

metadataObjectMeta

metadata is the metadata applied to the MachinePool. At runtime this metadata is merged with the corresponding metadata from the ClusterClass.

minReadySecondsinteger

minReadySeconds is the minimum number of seconds for which a newly created machine pool should be ready. Defaults to 0 (machine will be considered available as soon as it is ready)

namestring

name is the unique identifier for this MachinePoolTopology. The value is used with other unique identifiers to create a MachinePool's Name (e.g. cluster's name, etc). In case the name is greater than the allowed maximum length, the values are hashed together.

nodeDeletionTimeoutstring

nodeDeletionTimeout defines how long the controller will attempt to delete the Node that the MachinePool hosts after the MachinePool is marked for deletion. A duration of 0 will retry deletion indefinitely. Defaults to 10 seconds.

nodeVolumeDetachTimeout is the total amount of time that the controller will spend on waiting for all volumes to be detached. The default value is 0, meaning that the volumes can be detached without any time limitations.

replicasinteger

replicas is the number of nodes belonging to this pool. If the value is nil, the MachinePool is created without the number of Replicas (defaulting to 1) and it's assumed that an external entity (like cluster autoscaler) is responsible for the management of this value.
