Description

That leads to a situation when a host freezes due to some system issue, while Indexer auto-scaler still thinks his pool is ok, and pending tasks list keeps growing.

Research direction

Start by tracing the Indexer auto-scaler’s worker-pool health handling and how it observes pending tasks. Define how a frozen host should be detected and how the pool should respond, then verify that unhealthy workers no longer make the pool appear healthy.
