Kubectl describe:

   limits:
     ephemeral-storage: "1Gi"
   requests:
     ephemeral-storage: "500Mi"
settings:

I am seeing this when executing one specific build. Despite the flags included above the pods still get evicted because they requested 0KiB of ephemeral storage.

The .drone.yml file does not implement the ephemeral-limits attribute, so using this attribute does not have any effect.

That, makes sense. Since making this post I have found I have some WAY bigger issues with the cluster. Thanks for the reply

EDIT: my nodes were woefully low on total storage but by the time I did a df -h the pods had evicted and cleaned up after themselves

I’d like to +1 the request that drone kubernetes pipelines support ephemeral storage limits. I’m seeing similar evictions, when I’d rather my autoscaler to spin up a new node.
