@helpful-advantage-49286 hmm, you mean that you want to configure the load balancer that underlies the 
Ingress
itself?
h
Yeah, I want to change some of the healthchecks, and tweak some other stuff that isn’t exposed via k8s
c
@helpful-advantage-49286 so this is a pretty common use case but in pulumi if you want to manage a resource, you have to create it yourself.
I actually typically recommend that people don’t use 
Ingress
if they can avoid it. If you’re already married to GCP, I personally would just use the pod-aware load balancing and be done with it. This is the sort of thing that’s super easy in PUlumi — to me the compelling use case for 
Ingress
is when you’re not using pulumi, where this kind of thing is super hard.
h
Interesting, so you would suggest just creating the loadbalancer manually and pointing it at the nodeport?
Any docs on how I can do that easily?
c
hmm
h
(this is 3 new things to me, k8s, gcp and pulumi)
c
let me try to find some
h
I can probably figure out the pulumi bits if you can point me at good gcp docs for this!
c
in case it is not clear, this LB will route traffic directly to your pods. normally the LB routes traffic to a pod, and then that pod sends the traffic to the actual pod.
I’m not 100% sure how to boot the underlying LB without a service, but I’ve heard about people who did it
h
hrm, this still has you using an Ingress
c
I think that’s just one option.
I think you can manually create network endpoint groups, could be wrong though as I’ve never done it myself
note though, this will be at a minimum quite a bit more work, if you do get it working.
when I’m in on tuesday I can try to help out more — got to go get stuff so I can make dinner now though
h
No rush! I have what I need working now, just decided to serve something at / that is valid to workaround the issue temporarily!
