We have some long running jobs created as Service Fabric actors. The actors have no data other than the reminder. When these services gets deployed in local cluster, they seem to activate with no issues. When we deploy them to server which runs a 3 node cluster some of the services fail to activate. We don't see the memory utilization in node going beyond 50% . However when we added 2 more nodes and ran on 5 node the activation seems to be working fine. We are using 1 partition and 1 replica count only; so wondering is there some setting that is stopping the fabric to activate more services. We have also increased the application port range, but no luck.
It is also noticed that after one service activation fails; other statefull services also becomes unstable. They show error of unhealthy partitions. The cluster also runs some stateless services which runs like a charm. Any clue why the activation fails for the actors?
