server in a given timeframe for whatever reasons (networking issue, machine
failure, etc.). Normally when kube-up script will encounter even one NotReady
node it will fail, even though the cluster most likely will be working. We
added an environmental variable to kube-up ALLOWED\_NOTREADY\_NODES that
defines the number of nodes that if not Ready in time won’t cause kube-up
failure.
