I encounter on an error patching node in cluster, i setting up three server, they are all master,worker node.  
In order to let my ap pods be able to request service, i setup a virtual ip by using keepalived, all request come from this ip to my ap pods.

- virtualip: 192.168.1.13
- server1:192.168.1.10
- server2: 192.168.1.11
- server3: 192.168.1.12

Below is the error message from the server3.
