forceRestartOnConfigChange

The forceRestartOnConfigChange value defines whether the pods of the GoKubeDownscaler should be restarted when changing the config in the configMap.

info

The default values for forceRestartOnConfigChange are:

forceRestartOnConfigChange: true

By default the forceRestartOnConfigChange field is set to true.

This will append the annotation checksum/config to the pods of the GoKubeDownscaler which has the value of the checksum of the current configMap. So when you make a change in the configMap the checksum and in turn the annotation changes which will restart the pods. To disable this behavior you just have to set forceRestartOnConfigChange to false.
