Emissary Ingress Chart v3.9.1 shutdown with unreal memory usage 'bug'

[mnogueiraops]

No significant changes were made to this Emissary Ingress. It was working for like 60 days until we got a restart into the namespace. Now i got this:

Any tips?

We too, suddenly and without any change to configuration:

@mnogueiraops I don't know your environment, but I've had this problem using OKE in Oracle Cloud. I've found that it depends on the operating system and/or containerd version, cordoning recently updated nodes it works again

10.197.13.242 Ready node 25d v1.31.1 10.197.13.242 Oracle Linux Server 8.10 5.15.0-210.163.7.el8uek.x86_64 cri-o://1.31.3-2.a553be57b4d.el8
10.197.14.156 Ready,SchedulingDisabled node 4d16h v1.31.1 10.197.14.156 Oracle Linux Server 8.10 5.15.0-302.167.6.el8uek.x86_64 cri-o://1.31.3-2.a553be57b4d.el8

The OCID of the working node is ocid1.image.oc1.eu-frankfurt-1.aaaaaaaa7c4hexum4lbjpw2k3lt3ukn5j2czsqriuk3ufn5vas7klcvyghza

Thank you, @dgaffuri

We do indeed use OKE. I will test the proposed step.
