<p>I have one node pool named &quot;<strong>application pool</strong>&quot; which contains node vm size of <strong>Standard_D2a_v4</strong>. This node pool is set to &quot;<strong>Autoscaling</strong>&quot;.
Is there in solution, where I taint the whole node pool in azure? to restrict the pods to schedule on that node pool?</p>

<p>You can use below command for adding taint for existing nodepool in the <strong>AKS</strong> clusters:</p>
<pre><code>az aks nodepool update --resource-group myResourceGroup --cluster-name myAKSCluste --name taintnp --node-taints sku=gpu:NoSchedule
</code></pre>
