Hi, I have configured HA RKE2 using Kube-VIP on 3 Master nodes. The setup came up properly by assigning the VIP address to one of the Master nodes and is working as expected. The issue arises only when two of the master nodes are down, first kubectl command fails to respond and there is no kube-vip address available on the existing single Master node. Please let me know if this is a known issue with kube-vip or I am missing something. Any help would be appreciated.

If you only have 1/3 servers available then your cluster does not have quorum and is non-functional. Were you expecting one server to function all by itself?
kube-vip needs the kubernetes cluster up to move the VIP around. If you are trying to use it to load-balance the control plane itself you are probably going to have problems.

Yes I expect the HA cluster to be functional with at least a single master node.
