Five compounding factors produced the 2026-04-22 flap cascade: soft anti-affinity let 2/3 pods co-locate on k8s-node3 (which bounced NotReady→Ready at 11:42Z and took quorum), aggressive sentinel/probe timing amplified LUKS-encrypted LVM I/O stalls into spurious +switch-master loops, HAProxy's 1s polling raced sentinel failovers and routed writes to demoted masters, publish_not_ready_addresses=true fed not-yet-ready pods into HAProxy DNS, and realestate-crawler-celery CrashLoopBackOff closed the feedback loop. Changes: - Anti-affinity: preferred → required (one redis pod per node, hard) - Sentinel down-after-ms 5000→15000, failover-timeout 30000→60000 - Redis + sentinel liveness: timeout 3→10, failure_threshold 3→5 - HAProxy: check inter 1s→2s / fall 2→3, timeout check 3s→5s - Headless svc: publish_not_ready_addresses true→false Post-rollout verification clean: 0 flaps, 0 +switch-master events, 0 celery ReadOnlyError in the 60s window after settle.
