Hi,  
So I saw there is now an option to add execution nodes on k8s installation on runtime, which is a great feature, but I haven’t seen any documentation/implementation on how to add hop nodes, and the add an execution node on top of that hop node

is that something possible today?

Help will be highly appreciated  
Kind Regards  
Erez

Hi,

As far as I know, the support for hop nodes for k8s deployment is planned, but not implemented yet.  
It has been mentioned a bit at past community meetings.
