[question] Flux on spot/preemptible instances

[PatrykGala]

Describe the bug

Hi,
I'm using Flux v2 with GKE autopilot cluster, for test/dev environments I would like to use Flux with spot instances. Is the setup reliable? Are flux images fault tolerant?

Steps to reproduce

spot_instances.yaml

apiVersion: apps/v1
kind: Deployment
metadata:
  name: not_used
  namespace: flux-system
spec:
  template:
    spec:
      nodeSelector:
        cloud.google.com/gke-spot: "true"

kustomization.yaml

apiVersion: kustomize.config.k8s.io/v1beta1
kind: Kustomization
patches:
  - path: spot_instances.yaml
    target:
      kind: Deployment

resources:
  - gotk-components.yaml
  - gotk-sync.yaml

Expected behavior

Flux should works correctly on Spot instances.
