<p>rook-ceph-mon-x pods have following affinity:</p>

<pre><code>spec:
  affinity:
    podAntiAffinity:
      requiredDuringSchedulingIgnoredDuringExecution:
      - labelSelector:

        topologyKey: kubernetes.io/hostname
</code></pre>

<p>which doesn't allow for running 2 rook-ceph-mon pods on the same node.
Since you seem to have 3 nodes: 1 master and 2 workers, 2 pods get created, one on kube2 and one on kube3 node. kube1 is master node tainted as unschedulable so rook-ceph-mon-c cannot be scheduled there.</p>

<p>To solve it you can:</p>

<ul>
<li>add one more worker node</li>
<li>remove NoSchedule taint with <code>kubectl taint nodes kube1 key:NoSchedule-</code></li>
