The control plane nodes are the nodes that run the Kubernetes control plane components, such as the API server, the scheduler, the controller manager, and etcd. The control plane nodes are responsible for managing the cluster state and orchestrating workload operations. The possible counts of control plane nodes in a Tanzu Kubernetes Grid workload cluster are 1 or 3. The control plane must have an odd number of nodes to ensure quorum and high availability. A single control plane node is suitable for development or testing purposes, while three control plane nodes are recommended for production clusters23.
