Thanks Paul! Is there any specific centos/RH mailing list that I can ask? Not sure whether it is a problem with kernel/docker/kubelet. semodule -R seems to fix the problem, but not sure what is causing the loaded policy to get corrupt. Any insight on how to figure this out would be very much appreciated. Thanks Sujithra.
