New Relic should detect a disrupted workflow when a workload is unavailable
Verify that New Relic alerts you to disruptions in your workflow, such as a critical deployment without pods ready to serve traffic.
Motivation
Kubernetes features a liveness probe to determine whether your pod is healthy and can accept traffic. If Kubernetes cannot probe a pod, it restarts it in the hope that it will eventually be ready. In case it is a critical deployment, New Relic workflow should alert on this disruption
Structure
First, check that the New Relic Workflow is marked as operational As soon as all pods of a workload aren't reachable, caused by the block traffic attack, New Relic should detect this by marking the workflow as disrupted and ensuring your on-call team is taking action.
