Auto-scaling of agent/worker nodes in Azure Container Service [Kubernetes]


My question is not related to auto-scaling of pods as provided by kubernetes, I am talking about auto-scaling of worker/agent nodes which are managed by ACS

Currently, autoscaling of agent nodes in a container service cluster is not supported.

For now, we can use Azure CLI2.0 to scale down or up by command az acs scale

For example:
azure acs scale -g myResourceGroup -n containerservice-myACSName --new-agent-count 10

More information about az acs scale command, please refer to this link.


You can use azure-cli. The command you would need is az acs scale
