¶ 3. Add a Worker Pool
To add a new pool within the existing Cluster, click the Add New Pool button at the top of the Pool tab, as shown below:
Set up your new pool within the available resources by selecting Private or Public Cloud and choosing the most suitable tariff in the modal window.
At this stage, you can turn on the Autoscaler for your new pool by switching the toggle. You can return to your worker pool anytime and change this setting. Click Add Worker Pool to apply your settings and proceed.
Once your Worker pool is added, you can add Worker Сustom labels for your convenience via Add custom label button at the bottom of the Worker Pool details as shown in the image above.
Worker Сustom labels are Kubernetes labels applied to Node objects in Kubernetes API after worker creation. You’re free to use them as you want in your infrastructure, as they would be used with other Kubernetes workload instances.
