Why no liveness/readiness probes on etcd StatefulSet?

[nekstrom-evroc]

There are no liveness/readiness probes on the etcd StatefulSet: https://github.com/kcp-dev/helm-charts/blob/main/charts/kcp/templates/etcd-statefulset.yaml

Why is this? Is it on purpose?

Hi @nekstrom-evroc, I don't think this is on purpose, we just never got to it and would recommend that "real" production setups use more sophisticated etcd deployment methods such as etcd-druid. We would welcome contributions to add probes to the StatefulSet though!

Thank you @embik! That's good to know. I will investigate other more sophisticated etcd deployment methods to see what they do.

Sure! I would like to keep this issue open so that someone can pick it up and add probes to the StatefulSet. Any objections?

[nekstrom-evroc]

No objections, it sounds good. Thanks again!
