There are specific IFS Connect Routing Rules set up that allow Kubernetes to determine if the service is ready.
Should these rules be deleted or amended then the IFS Connect container will not start and therefore the application will be unavailable.
Always make sure that an Inbound Routing Rule with the name ‘READINESS_PROBE’ is available in the environment in questions. If it is available then make sure that it is Enabled as well.
An enhancement request has been created to make sure routing rules of this type are read only in future.
