I believe if you rezise the instance to a flavor that has hw:cpu_policy=dedicated on it, you should be good.

I managed to create an instance with dedicated cores, after application-apply. Btw, do we need to recreate all instances or is there a solution for existing instances which were created without dedicated cores?

Can you send the output of the command below for you compute pods: kubectl exec -n openstack nova-compute-[woker|controller]-X-XXXXX-xxxx -- cat /etc/nova/nova.conf|grep dedicated_set Don't forget to change the id of the pod for your compute pods.
