@ancient-wolf-19325 Flyte sensor tasks are getting stuck at Running stage intermittently. I have a suspicion that this happens when the flyteagent pod becomes unhealthy/terminated.

The issue of Flyte sensor tasks getting stuck in the "Running" stage could be related to the health of the flyteagent pod. If the flyteagent pod becomes unhealthy or is terminated, it might not be able to report the task status back to Flyte, causing the task to appear stuck. This is similar to issues where tasks remain in a "Running" state due to delays in updating node status in the UI or when the pod status is not resolved before Kubernetes removes the pod (source). To troubleshoot, you can check the logs of the flyteagent pod for any errors or indications of why it might be terminating. Additionally, ensure that the pod has sufficient resources and is not under heavy load, which could lead to termination or unresponsiveness (source). Would you like more detailed information on how to address this issue or further troubleshooting steps?

@ancient-wolf-19325 Is flyteagent not fault tolerable? In k8s this kind of disruptions are expected

Flyte is designed to be fault-tolerant, leveraging Kubernetes' capabilities to handle disruptions. However, specific components like the flyteagent may still face issues if not configured properly. If the flyteagent pod becomes unhealthy or terminated, it can impact task execution and status reporting, as seen in cases where tasks get stuck in the "Running" state (source). To enhance fault tolerance, ensure that the flyteagent pod is configured with appropriate resource requests and limits to prevent it from being evicted or terminated due to resource constraints. Additionally, consider implementing pod disruption budgets and using Kubernetes' built-in mechanisms like node affinity and anti-affinity to improve resilience (source). Would you like more detailed guidance on configuring flyteagent for better fault tolerance?
