12.7 Other Considerations for Horizontal Pod Autoscaler
Administrators should be aware of the following considerations after deploying the
Horizontal Pod Autoscaler (HPA):
- If HPA is deployed and you need to upgrade the Oracle Unified Directory (OUD) container image, then you must delete the HPA before upgrading. To delete the HPA, see Deleting the Horizontal Pod Autoscaler. Once the upgrade is successful you can deploy HPA again.
- If you choose to scale up or scale down an OUD server manually as per Scaling Up/Down OUD Pods, then it is recommended to delete the HPA before doing so.
