By default, server nodes are schedulable and workloads can be launched on them. If you wish to have a dedicated control plane where no user workloads will run, use the `node-taint` parameter. Here is an example of adding a node taint to the configuration file:

By default, server nodes will be schedulable and thus your workloads can get launched on them. If you wish to have a dedicated control plane where no user workloads will run, you can use taints. The `node-taint` parameter will allow you to configure nodes with taints, for example `--node-taint CriticalAddonsOnly=true:NoExecute`.

Yeah expanding this to include all node taints and linking to it in the HA page would be better.
