Using Console
Using Console
To remediate the misconfiguration “Node Pools Should Be Regional For High Availability” in GCP using GCP console, follow the below steps:
- Login to the GCP console.
- Navigate to the Kubernetes Engine section.
- Select the cluster that has the misconfigured node pool.
- Click on the “Nodes” tab on the left-hand side.
- Select the node pool that needs to be remediated.
- Click the “Edit” button at the top of the page.
- Under the “Location” section, select “Regional” from the drop-down menu.
- Choose the region where you want to create the node pool.
- Click “Save” to apply the changes.
- Wait for the node pool to be created in the selected region.
- Once the node pool is created, verify that the nodes are running and healthy.

- First, check the current status of your node pool using the following command:
[NODE_POOL_NAME], [CLUSTER_NAME] and [ZONE_NAME] with your own values.- If the node pool is not regional, create a new regional node pool using the following command:
[NEW_NODE_POOL_NAME], [CLUSTER_NAME], [NUMBER_OF_NODES] and [REGION_NAME] with your own values.- Verify that the new node pool has been created successfully using the following command:
[CLUSTER_NAME] and [REGION_NAME] with your own values.- Once the new node pool is created and verified, you can delete the old node pool using the following command:
[OLD_NODE_POOL_NAME], [CLUSTER_NAME] and [ZONE_NAME] with your own values.- Verify that the old node pool has been deleted successfully using the following command:
[CLUSTER_NAME] and [ZONE_NAME] with your own values.By following these steps, you can remediate the misconfiguration “Node Pools Should Be Regional For High Availability” for GCP using GCP CLI.Using Python
Using Python
To remediate the misconfiguration “Node Pools Should Be Regional For High Availability” for GCP using Python, you can follow the below steps:Step 1: Import the required libraries and authenticate to GCP using service account credentials.Step 2: Get the list of node pools in the cluster that are not regional.Step 3: Delete the non-regional node pools and create new regional node pools.Note: Replace ‘your-project-id’, ‘your-zone’, ‘your-cluster-id’, ‘your-node-pool-name’, ‘your-machine-type’ and ‘100’ with your actual values.These steps will remediate the misconfiguration “Node Pools Should Be Regional For High Availability” for GCP using Python.
