Traceable does not support TCP probes. Since Traceable redirects all incoming traffic to its sidecar, TCP ports appear open, leading the kubelet to incorrectly assume the application is running, even if it is still initializing. It’s similar to a four-way stoplight showing all green lights in your cluster.
If your organization uses TCP probes for liveness, switch to httpGet probes for accurate checks.
HTTP Health Check:

/healthNon-TLS port: 5442
TLS port: 5443
gRPC Health Check:
Non-TLS port: 5441
TLS port: 5443
These HTTP and gRPC checks ensure proper service availability and operational status monitoring.
