I'm not quite sure what you're talking about. Scaling the cluster up/down is handled by Kubernetes/Cilium on its own, as proper components are scheduled to run e.g. on all nodes. |

Howdy. I've got a homelab with Talos Linux and it's fun. I'm learning new things, and breaking things in interesting ways. 🥇
I'm learning that if you want Cilium CNI, and you want to later scale your control planes (adding new control plane nodes), you'll probably not want to use the Cilium CLI to install itself in the first place. Why? Because Talos won't have the correct manifests to install and configure Cilium on newly added Control Plane hosts.
It is easier to just run 'cilium install' - and I wish that this was better supported. However, that ease at the beginning of your journey are paid later when you need to scale.
I think the hints left in the Talos Linux's Cilium docs should be well-heeded. :) Cheers!
