Functions are scaled to zero after a reboot

wimdecorte commented 2 years ago

Due diligence

My actions before raising this issue

Before you ask for help or support, make sure that you've consulted the manual for faasd. We can't answer questions that are already covered by the manual. Done. Bought the book, read the deployment and troubleshooting sections, inspected the various logs.

Why do you need this?

I want to make sure my functions are available when the RPI4 boots.

Expected Behaviour

On startup, the functions should go to the ready state.

Current Behaviour

Instead they remain "not ready" until I remove them and redeploy them

Attached screenshot shows the openfaas UI is up, but the function is not.

Hi @wimdecorte thanks for the one-time sponsorship.

This behaviour is working as designed, upon reboot, all functions are scaled to zero and will be scaled up in time for the first invocation that they receive.

This should not cause you any issues that I'm aware of? Have you tried visiting the URL as displayed in the URL field in the UI?

Some people have added a /health/ endpoint to their functions and invoke them with a cron task of @reboot /home/pi/warm-up-functions.sh

/set title: Functions are scaled to zero after a reboot

vnourdin commented 1 year ago

Hello @alexellis, I have an error 500 Can't reach service for: my-fun.namespace. on first function's call when they are scaled to 0, is this normal ? I understand why we scale to zero at reboot, but a 500 to the end user is a problem for me. What I would have expected is to scale up the function to one and then respond. Thanks !
