-If the Status of the Ready condition remains `Unknown` or `False` for longer than the `pod-eviction-timeout`, an argument is passed to the [kube-controller-manager](/docs/admin/kube-controller-manager/) and all the Pods on the node are scheduled for deletion by the Node Controller. The default eviction timeout duration is **five minutes**. In some cases when the node is unreachable, the apiserver is unable to communicate with the kubelet on the node. The decision to delete the pods cannot be communicated to the kubelet until communication with the apiserver is re-established. In the meantime, the pods that are scheduled for deletion may continue to run on the partitioned node.
