Currently livenessProbe and readinessProbe have set timeoutSeconds to default kubernetes value: 1.
We got information from IBM support, that they recommend to set this value to higher number because sometimes network packets are lost and they are resent after 1 second. Because of that, pods can be restarted because probes will fail because of timeout.
It would be good to set it to 3 or 5 seconds.
