Problem:

Certain Insights Advisor features differentiate between RHEL and OCP advisor

Goal:

Address top priority UI misalignments between RHEL and OCP advisor. Address UI features dropped from Insights ADvisor for OCP GA.

Scope:

Specific tasks and priority of them tracked in https://issues.redhat.com/browse/CCXDEV-7432

Managing PVs at scale for a fleet creates difficulties where "one size does not fit all". The ability for SRE to deploy prometheus with PVs and have retention based an on a desired size would enable easier management of these volumes across the fleet. 

The prometheus-operator exposes retentionSize.

This is a feature request to enable this configuration option via CMO cluster-monitoring-config ConfigMap.

Problem Alignment

The Problem

Today, all configuration for setting individual, for example, routing configuration is done via a single configuration file that only admins have access to. If an environment uses multiple tenants and each tenant, for example, has different systems that they are using to notify teams in case of an issue, then someone needs to file a request w/ an admin to add the required settings.

That can be bothersome for individual teams, since requests like that usually disappear in the backlog of an administrator. At the same time, administrators might get tons of requests that they have to look at and prioritize, which takes them away from more crucial work.

We would like to introduce a more self service approach whereas individual teams can create their own configuration for their needs w/o the administrators involvement.

Last but not least, since Monitoring is deployed as a Core service of OpenShift there are multiple restrictions that the SRE team has to apply to all OSD and ROSA clusters. One restriction is the ability for customers to use the central Alertmanager that is owned and managed by the SRE team. They can't give access to the central managed secret due to security concerns so that users can add their own routing information.

High-Level Approach

Provide a new API (based on the Operator CRD approach) as part of the Prometheus Operator that allows creating a subset of the Alertmanager configuration without touching the central Alertmanager configuration file.

Please note that we do not plan to support additional individual webhooks with this work. Customers will need to deploy their own version of the third party webhooks.

Goal & Success

• Allow users to deploy individual configurations that allow setting up Alertmanager for their needs without an administrator.

Solution Alignment

Key Capabilities

• As an OpenShift administrator, I want to control who can CRUD individual configuration so that I can make sure that any unknown third person can touch the central Alertmanager instance shipped within OpenShift Monitoring.
• As a team owner, I want to deploy a routing configuration to push notifications for alerts to my system of choice.

Key Flows

Team A wants to send all their important notifications to a specific Slack channel.

• Administrator gives permission to Team A to allow creating a new configuration CR in their individual namespace.
• Team A creates a new configuration CR.
• Team A configures what alerts should go into their Slack channel.
• Open Questions & Key Decisions (optional)
• Do we want to improve anything inside the developer console to allow configuration?

Which service is this feature request for?
OpenShift Dedicated and Red Hat OpenShift Service on AWS

What are you trying to do?
Allow ROSA/OSD to integrate with AWS Managed Prometheus.

Describe the solution you'd like
Remote-write of metrics is supported in OpenShift but it does not work with AWS Managed Prometheus since AWS Managed Prometheus requires AWS SigV4 auth.

• Note that Prometheus supports AWS SigV4 since v2.26 and OpenShift 4.9 uses v2.29.

Describe alternatives you've considered
There is the workaround to use the "AWS SigV4 Proxy" but I'd think this is not properly supported by RH.
https://mobb.ninja/docs/rosa/cluster-metrics-to-aws-prometheus/

Additional context
The customer wants to use an open and portable solution to centralize metrics storage and analysis. If they also deploy to other clouds, they don't want to have to re-configure. Since most clouds offer a Prometheus service (or it's easy to self-manage Prometheus), app migration should be simplified.

OCP/Telco Definition of Done
Feature Template descriptions and documentation.

Feature Overview.

Early customer feedback is that they see SNO as a great solution covering smaller footprint deployment, but are wondering what is the evolution story OpenShift is going to provide where more capacity or high availability are needed in the future.

While migration tooling (moving workload/config to new cluster) could be a mid-term solution, customer desire is not to include extra hardware to be involved in this process.

 For Telecommunications Providers, at the Far Edge they intend to start small and then grow. Many of these operators will start with a SNO-based DU deployment as an initial investment, but as DUs evolve, different segments of the radio spectrum are added, various radio hardware is provisioned and features delivered to the Far Edge, the Telecommunication Providers desire the ability for their Far Edge deployments to scale up from 1 node to 2 nodes to n nodes. On the opposite side of the spectrum from SNO is MMIMO where there is a robust cluster and workloads use HPA.

Goals

• Provide the capability to expand a single replica control plane topology to host more workloads capacity - add worker
• Provide the capability to expand a single replica control plane to be a highly available control plane
• To satisfy MMIMO Telecommunications providers will want the ability to scale a SNO to a multi-node cluster that can support HPA.
• Telecommunications providers do not want workload (DU specifically) downtime when migrating from SNO to a multi-node cluster.
• Telecommunications providers wish to be able to scale from one to two or more nodes to support a variety of radio hardware.
• Support CP scaling (CP HA) for 2 node cluster, 3 node cluster and n node cluster. As the number of nodes in the cluster increases so does the failure domain of the cluster. The cluster is now supporting more cell sectors and therefore has more of a need for HA and resiliency including the cluster CP.

Feature Overview

• As an infrastructure owner, I want a repeatable method to quickly deploy the initial OpenShift cluster.

• As an infrastructure owner, I want to install the first (management, hub, “cluster 0”) cluster to manage other (standalone, hub, spoke, hub of hubs) clusters.

Goals

• Enable customers and partners to successfully deploy a single “first” cluster in disconnected, on-premises settings

Requirements

4.11 MVP Requirements

• Customers and partners needs to be able to download the installer
• Enable customers and partners to deploy a single “first” cluster (cluster 0) using single node, compact, or highly available topologies in disconnected, on-premises settings
• Installer must support advanced network settings such as static IP assignments, VLANs and NIC bonding for on-premises metal use cases, as well as DHCP and PXE provisioning environments.
• Installer needs to support automation, including integration with third-party deployment tools, as well as user-driven deployments.
• In the MVP automation has higher priority than interactive, user-driven deployments.
• For bare metal deployments, we cannot assume that users will provide us the credentials to manage hosts via their BMCs.
• Installer should prioritize support for platforms None, baremetal, and VMware.
• The installer will focus on a single version of OpenShift, and a different build artifact will be produced for each different version.
• The installer must not depend on a connected registry; however, the installer can optionally use a previously mirrored registry within the disconnected environment.

Use Cases

• As a Telco partner engineer (Site Engineer, Specialist, Field Engineer), I want to deploy an OpenShift cluster in production with limited or no additional hardware and don’t intend to deploy more OpenShift clusters [Isolated edge experience].
• As a Enterprise infrastructure owner, I want to manage the lifecycle of multiple clusters in 1 or more sites by first installing the first  (management, hub, “cluster 0”) cluster to manage other (standalone, hub, spoke, hub of hubs) clusters [Cluster before your cluster].
• As a Partner, I want to package OpenShift for large scale and/or distributed topology with my own software and/or hardware solution.
• As a large enterprise customer or Service Provider, I want to install a “HyperShift Tugboat” OpenShift cluster in order to offer a hosted OpenShift control plane at scale to my consumers (DevOps Engineers, tenants) that allows for fleet-level provisioning for low CAPEX and OPEX, much like AKS or GKE [Hypershift].
• As a new, novice to intermediate user (Enterprise Admin/Consumer, Telco Partner integrator, RH Solution Architect), I want to quickly deploy a small OpenShift cluster for Poc/Demo/Research purposes.

Questions to answer…

Out of Scope

Out of scope use cases (that are part of the Kubeframe/factory project):

• As a Partner (OEMs, ISVs), I want to install and pre-configure OpenShift with my hardware/software in my disconnected factory, while allowing further (minimal) reconfiguration of a subset of capabilities later at a different site by different set of users (end customer) [Embedded OpenShift].
• As an Infrastructure Admin at an Enterprise customer with multiple remote sites, I want to pre-provision OpenShift centrally prior to shipping and activating the clusters in remote sites.

Background, and strategic fit

• This Section: What does the person writing code, testing, documenting need to know? What context can be provided to frame this feature.

Assumptions

1. The user has only access to the target nodes that will form the cluster and will boot them with the image presented locally via a USB stick. This scenario is common in sites with restricted access such as government infra where only users with security clearance can interact with the installation, where software is allowed to enter in the premises (in a USB, DVD, SD card, etc.) but never allowed to come back out. Users can't enter supporting devices such as laptops or phones.
2. The user has access to the target nodes remotely to their BMCs (e.g. iDrac, iLo) and can map an image as virtual media from their computer. This scenario is common in data centers where the customer provides network access to the BMCs of the target nodes.
3. We cannot assume that we will have access to a computer to run an installer or installer helper software.

Feature Overview

The AWS-specific code added in OCPPLAN-6006 needs to become GA and with this we want to introduce a couple of Day2 improvements.
Currently the AWS tags are defined and applied at installation time only and saved in the infrastructure CRD's status field for further operator use, which in turn just add the tags during creation.

Saving in the status field means it's not included in Velero backups, which is a crucial feature for customers and Day2.
Thus the status.resourceTags field should be deprecated in favour of a newly created spec.resourceTags with the same content. The installer should only populate the spec, consumers of the infrastructure CRD must favour the spec over the status definition if both are supplied, otherwise the status should be honored and a warning shall be issued.

Being part of the spec, the behaviour should also tag existing resources that do not have the tags yet and once the tags in the infrastructure CRD are changed all the AWS resources should be updated accordingly.

On AWS this can be done without re-creating any resources (the behaviour is basically an upsert by tag key) and is possible without service interruption as it is a metadata operation.

Tag deletes continue to be out of scope, as the customer can still have custom tags applied to the resources that we do not want to delete.

Due to the ongoing intree/out of tree split on the cloud and CSI providers, this should not apply to clusters with intree providers (!= "external").

Once confident we have all components updated, we should introduce an end2end test that makes sure we never create resources that are untagged.

After that, we can remove the experimental flag and make this a GA feature.

Goals

• Inclusion in the cluster backups
• Flexibility of changing tags during cluster lifetime, without recreating the whole cluster

tldr: three basic claims, the rest is explanation and one example

1. We cannot improve long term maintainability solely by fixing bugs.
2. Teams should be asked to produce designs for improving maintainability/debugability.
3. Specific maintenance items (or investigation of maintenance items), should be placed into planning as peer to PM requests and explicitly prioritized against them.

While bugs are an important metric, fixing bugs is different than investing in maintainability and debugability. Investing in fixing bugs will help alleviate immediate problems, but doesn't improve the ability to address future problems. You (may) get a code base with fewer bugs, but when you add a new feature, it will still be hard to debug problems and interactions. This pushes a code base towards stagnation where it gets harder and harder to add features.

One alternative is to ask teams to produce ideas for how they would improve future maintainability and debugability instead of focusing on immediate bugs. This would produce designs that make problem determination, bug resolution, and future feature additions faster over time.

I have a concrete example of one such outcome of focusing on bugs vs quality. We have resolved many bugs about communication failures with ingress by finding problems with point-to-point network communication. We have fixed the individual bugs, but have not improved the code for future debugging. In so doing, we chase many hard to diagnose problem across the stack. The alternative is to create a point-to-point network connectivity capability. this would immediately improve bug resolution and stability (detection) for kuryr, ovs, legacy sdn, network-edge, kube-apiserver, openshift-apiserver, authentication, and console. Bug fixing does not produce the same impact.

We need more investment in our future selves. Saying, "teams should reserve this" doesn't seem to be universally effective. Perhaps an approach that directly asks for designs and impacts and then follows up by placing the items directly in planning and prioritizing against PM feature requests would give teams the confidence to invest in these areas and give broad exposure to systemic problems.

Feature Overview  

Much like core OpenShift operators, a standardized flow exists for OLM-managed operators to interact with the cluster in a specific way to leverage AWS STS authorization when using AWS APIs as opposed to insecure static, long-lived credentials. OLM-managed operators can implement integration with the CloudCredentialOperator in well-defined way to support this flow.

Goals:

Enable customers to easily leverage OpenShift's capabilities around AWS STS with layered products, for increased security posture. Enable OLM-managed operators to implement support for this in well-defined pattern.

Requirements:

• CCO gets a new mode in which it can reconcile STS credential request for OLM-managed operators
• A standardized flow is leveraged to guide users in discovering and preparing their AWS IAM policies and roles with permissions that are required for OLM-managed operators 
• A standardized flow is defined in which users can configure OLM-managed operators to leverage AWS STS
• An example operator is used to demonstrate the end2end functionality
• Clear instructions and documentation for operator development teams to implement the required interaction with the CloudCredentialOperator to support this flow

Use Cases:

See Operators & STS slide deck.

Out of Scope:

• handling OLM-managed operator updates in which AWS IAM permission requirements might change from one version to another (which requires user awareness and intervention)

Background:

The CloudCredentialsOperator already provides a powerful API for OpenShift's cluster core operator to request credentials and acquire them via short-lived tokens. This capability should be expanded to OLM-managed operators, specifically to Red Hat layered products that interact with AWS APIs. The process today is cumbersome to none-existent based on the operator in question and seen as an adoption blocker of OpenShift on AWS.

Customer Considerations

This is particularly important for ROSA customers. Customers are expected to be asked to pre-create the required IAM roles outside of OpenShift, which is deemed acceptable.

Documentation Considerations

• Internal documentation needs to exists to guide Red Hat operator developer teams on the requirements and proposed implementation of integration with CCO and the proposed flow
• External documentation needs to exist to guide users on:
  • how to become aware that the cluster is in STS mode
  • how to become aware of operators that support STS and the proposed CCO flow
  • how to become aware of the IAM permissions requirements of these operators
  • how to configure an operator in the proposed flow to interact with CCO

Interoperability Considerations

• this needs to work with ROSA
• this needs to work with self-managed OCP on AWS

Feature Overview

Customers are asking for improvements to the upgrade experience (both over-the-air and disconnected). This is a feature tracking epics required to get that work done.  

Goals

1. Have an option to do upgrades in more discrete steps under admin control. Specifically, these steps are: 
   • Control plane upgrade
   • Worker nodes upgrade
   • Workload enabling upgrade (i..e. Router, other components) or infra nodes
2. Better visibility into any errors during the upgrades and documentation of what they error means and how to recover. 
3. An user experience around an end-2-end back-up and restore after a failed upgrade 
4. OTA-810  - Better Documentation: 
   • Backup procedures before upgrades. 
   • More control over worker upgrades (with tagged pools between user Vs admin)
   • The kinds of pre-upgrade tests that are run, the errors that are flagged and what they mean and how to address them. 
   • Better explanation of each discrete step in upgrades, and what each CVO Operator is doing and potential errors, troubleshooting and mitigating actions.

Background, and strategic fit

Consumption of RHEL entitlements has been a challenge on OCP 4 since it moved to a cluster-based entitlement model compared to the node-based (RHEL subscription manager) entitlement mode. In order to provide a sufficiently similar experience to OCP 3, the entitlement certificates that are made available on the cluster (OCPBU-93) should be shared across namespaces in order to prevent the need for cluster admin to copy these entitlements in each namespace which leads to additional operational challenges for updating and refreshing them.

Epic Goal

HyperShift provisions OpenShift clusters with externally managed control-planes. It follows a slightly different process for provisioning clusters. For example, HyperShift uses cluster API as a backend and moves all the machine management bits to the management cluster.  

Why is this important?

showing machine management/cluster auto-scaling tabs in the console is likely to confuse users and cause unnecessary side effects. 

Definition of Done

• MachineConfig and MachineConfigPool should not be present, they should be either removed or hidden when the cluster is spawned using HyperShift. 
• Cluster Settings show say the control plane is externally managed and be read-only.
• Cluster Settings -> Configuration resources should be read-only, maybe hide the tab
• Some resources should go in an allowlist. Most will be hidden
• Review getting started steps

See Design Doc: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1k76JtRRHBdCCEjHPqKcYvbNVsuaGmRhWDLESWIm0mbo/edit#

Setup / Testing

It's based on the SERVER_FLAG controlPlaneTopology being set to External is really the driving factor here; this can be done in one of two ways:

• Locally via a Bridge Variable, export BRIDGE_CONTROL_PLANE_TOPOLOGY_MODE="External"
• Locally / OnCluster via modifying the window.SERVER_FLAGS.controlPlaneTopology to External in the dev tools

To test work related to cluster upgrade process, use a 4.10.3 cluster set on the candidate-4.10 upgrade channel using 4.11 frontend code.

Epic Goal

• Ensure that OCP Admin console can enable dark mode
• Mechanism for switching between light/dark mode, based on user preferences or User Settings in OCP
• Identify changes needed for OCP console's dynamic plugins
• Status as we work through the stories: https://docs.google.com/document/d/18ib0A9ZtSYo1e2aOtM2LtZcsNFs1aRCHXx6NAPsIAso/edit#

Why is this important?

• So the UX satisfies the current trands, where dark mode is becoming a standard for modern services.  

Acceptance Criteria

• OCP admin console must be rendered in a preferred mode based on `prefers-color-scheme` media query
• OCP admin console must be rendered in a preferred mode selected in the User Setting page
• Create an followup epic/story for and listing and tracking changes needed in OCP console's dynamic plugins

Open questions::

1. Who should be responsible for updating DynamicPlugins to be able to render in dark mode?

An epic we can duplicate for each release to ensure we have a place to catch things we ought to be doing regularly but can tend to fall by the wayside.

This epic contains all the Dynamic Plugins related stories for OCP release-4.11 

Epic Goal

• Track all the stories under a single epic

Acceptance Criteria

Goal

• Add the ability for users to select supported but not recommended updates.
• Refine workflow when both "upgradeable=false" and "supported-but-not-recommended" updates occur

Background
RFE: for 4.10, Cincinnati and the cluster-version operator are adding conditional updates (a.k.a. targeted edge blocking): https://issues.redhat.com/browse/OTA-267

High-level plans in https://github.com/openshift/enhancements/blob/master/enhancements/update/targeted-update-edge-blocking.md#update-client-support-for-the-enhanced-schema

Example of what the oc adm upgrade UX will be in https://github.com/openshift/enhancements/blob/master/enhancements/update/targeted-update-edge-blocking.md#cluster-administrator.

The oc implementation landed via https://github.com/openshift/oc/pull/961.

Design

• Use case 01: "supported but not recommended" occurs to the latest version:
  • Add an info icon next to the version on update path with a pop-over to explain about why updating to this version is supported, but not recommended and a link to known risks
  • Identify the difference in "recommended" versions, "supported but not recommended" versions, and "blocked" versions (upgradeable=false) in the + more modal.
  • The latest version is pre-selected in the dropdown in the update modal with an inline alert to inform users about supported-but-not-recommended version with link to known risks. Users can choose to update to another recommended versions, update to a supported-but-not-recommended one, or wait.
  • The "recommended" and "supported but not recommended" updates are separated in the dropdown.
  • If a user selects a "recommended" update, the inline alert disappears.
• Use case 02: When both "upgradeable=false" and "supported but not recommended" occur:
  • Add an alert banner to explain why users shouldn’t update to the latest version and link to how to resolve on the cluster settings details page. Users have the options to resolve the issue, update to a patch version, or wait.
  • If users open the update modal without resolving the "upgradeable=false" issue, the next recommended version is pre-selected. An expandable link "View blocked versions (#)" is included under the dropdown to show "upgradeable=false" versions with resolve link.
  • If users resolve the "upgradeable=false" issue, the cluster settings page will change to use case 01

• • Question: Priority on changing the upgradeable=false alert banner in update modal and blocked versions in dropdown

Goal

Remove Jenkins from the OCP Payload.

Problem

• Jenkins images are "non-trival in size, impact experience around OCP payloads
• Security advisories cannot be handled once, but against all actively supported OCP releases, adding to response time for handling said advisories
• Some customers may now want to upgrade Jenkins as OCP upgrades (making this configurable is more ideal)

Why is this important

• This is an engineering motivated item to reduce costs so we have more cycles for strategic work
• Aside from the team itself, top level OCP architects want this to reduce the image size, improve general OCP upgrade experience
• Sends a mix message with respect to what is startegic CI/CI when Jenkins is baked into OCP, but Tekton/Pipelines is an add-on, day 2 install sort of thing

Dependencies (internal and external)

See epic linking - need alternative non payload image available to provide relatively seamless migration

Also, the EP for this is approved and merged at https://github.com/openshift/enhancements/blob/master/enhancements/builds/remove-jenkins-payload.md

Estimate (xs, s, m, l, xl, xxl):

Questions:

• in addition to needing the CPaaS Image available first, have we confirmed the "deprecate first, then remove" requirements?  Per grooming we've assigned Rob Gormley the task https://issues.redhat.com/browse/JKNS-274 for tracking this down.  I will be reaching out to Ben Parees (he is currently on vacation) to confirm from an OCP staff engineer / architect perspective if his approval of https://github.com/openshift/enhancements/pull/841 is sufficient signoff from that end.

       PARTIAL ANSWER ^^:  confirmed with Ben Parees in https://coreos.slack.com/archives/C014MHHKUSF/p1646683621293839 that EP merging is currently sufficient OCP "technical leadership" approval.

Epic Goal

When users configure CMO to interact with systems outside of an OpenShift cluster, we want to provide an easy way to add the cluster ID to the data send.

Why is this important?

Technically this can be achieved today, by adding an identifying label to the remote_write configuration for a given cluster. The operator adding the remote_write integration needs to take care that the label is unique over the managed fleet of clusters. This however adds management complexity. Any given cluster already has a pseudo-unique datum, that can be used for this purpose.

• Starting in 4.9 we support the Prometheus remote_write feature to send metric data to a storage integration outside of the cluster similar to our own Telemetry service.
• In Telemetry we already use the cluster ID to distinguish the various clusters.
• For users of remote_write this could add an easy way to add such distinguishing information.

Scenarios

1. An organisation with multiple OpenShift clusters want to store their metric data centralized in a dedicated system and use remote_write in all their clusters to send this data. When querying their centralized storage, metadata (here a label) is needed to separate the data of the various clusters.
2. Service providers who manage multiple clusters for multiple customers via a centralized storage system need distinguishing metadata too. See https://issues.redhat.com/browse/OSD-6573 for example

Acceptance Criteria

• CI - MUST be running successfully with tests automated
• Release Technical Enablement - Provide necessary release enablement details and documents.
• Document how to use this feature

• DOC - Downstream documentation merged: <link to meaningful PR>

Implementation proposal:

Expose a flag in the CMO configuration, that is false by default (keeps backward compatibility) and when set to true will add the _id label to a remote_write configuration. More specifically it will be added to the top of a remote_write relabel_config list via the replace action. This will add the label as expect, but additionally a user could alter this label in a later relabel config to suit any specific requirements (say rename the label or add additional information to the value).
The location of this flag is the remote_write Spec, so this can be set for individual remote_write configurations.

Epic Goal

• Offer the option to double the scrape intervals for CMO controlled ServiceMonitors in single node deployments
• Alternatively automatically double the same scrape intervals if CMO detects an SNO setup

The potential target ServiceMonitors are:

• kubelet
• kube-state-metrics
• node-exporter
• etcd
• openshift-state-metrics

Why is this important?

• Reduce CPU usage in SNO setups
• Specifically doubling the scrape interval is important because:

1. we are confident that this will have the least chance to interfere with existing rules. We typically have rate queries over the last 2 minutes (no shorter time window). With 30 second scrape intervals (the current default) this gives us 4 samples in any 2 minute window. rate needs at least 2 samples to work, we want another 2 for failure tolerance. Doubling the scrape interval will still give us 2 samples in most 2 minute windows. If a scrape fails, a few rule evaluations might fail intermittently.
2. We expect a measureable reduction of CPU resources (see previous work)

Scenarios

1. RAN deployments (Telco Edge) are SNO deployments. In these setups a full CMO deployment is often not needed and the default setup consumes too many resources. OpenShift as a whole has only very limited CPU cycles available and too many cycles are spend on Monitoring

Previous Work (Optional):

Problem:

Currently we are only able to get limited telemetry from the Dev Sandbox, but not from any of our managed clusters or on prem clusters.

Goals:

1. Enable gathering segment telemetry whenever cluster telemetry is enabled on OSD clusters
2. Have our OSD clusters opt into telemetry by default
3. Work with PM & UX to identify additional metrics to capture in addition to what we have enabled currently on Sandbox.
4. Ability to get a single report from woopra across all of our Sandbox and OSD clusters.
5. Be able to generate a report including metrics of a single cluster or all clusters of a certain type ( sandbox, or OSD)

Why is it important?

In order to improve properly analyze usage and the user experience, we need to be able to gather as much data as possible.

Goal:
Enhance oc adm release new (and related verbs info, extract, mirror) with heterogeneous architecture support

Epic Goal

• Update image registry dependencies (Kubernetes and OpenShift) to the latest versions.

Why is this important?

• New versions usually bring improvements that are needed by the registry and help with getting updates for z-stream.

Scenarios

1. As an OpenShift engineer, I want my components to use the versions of dependencies, so that they get fixes for known issues and can be easily updated in z-stream.

Why is this important?

• Customers that use GPUs in their clusters usually have the GPU workloads as the main purpose of their cluster. As such, it makes much more sense to have the details about the usage they are doing of GPGPU resources AND CPU/RAM rather than just CPU/RAM

Scenarios

Epic Goal

• Run OpenShift builds that do not execute as the "root" user on the host node.

Why is this important?

• OpenShift builds require an elevated set of capabilities to build a container image
• Builds currently run as root to maintain adequate performance
• Container workloads should run as non-root from the host's perspective. Containers running as root are a known security risk.
• Builds currently run as root and require a privileged container. See BUILD-225 for removing the privileged container requirement.

Scenarios

1. Run BuildConfigs in a multi-tenant environment
2. Run BuildConfigs in a heightened security environment/deployment

Acceptance Criteria

• Developers can opt into running builds in a cri-o user namespace by providing an environment variable with a specific value.
• When the correct environment variable is provided, builds run in a cri-o user namespace, and the build pod does not require the "privileged: true" security context.
• User namespace builds can pass basic test scenarios for the Docker and Source strategy build.
• Steps to run unprivileged builds are documented.

Dependencies (internal and external)

1. Buildah supports running inside a non-privileged container
2. CRI-O allows workloads to opt into running containers in user namespaces.

Previous Work (Optional):

1. BUILD-225 - remove privileged requirement for builds.

Egress IP is not being assigned to primary interface of node as per hostsubnet definition. The issue being observed at an Openshift cluster hosted on Disconnected AWS environment.  Following steps were performed at AWS end:

- Disconnected VPC was created and installation of Openshift was done as per documentation.
- Elastic IP could not be used as it is a disconnected environment. Customer identified a free IP from same subnet as the node and modified interface of the node to add a secondary IP.

It seems cloud.network.openshift.io/egress-ipconfig annotation is need on the node to attach IP to primary interface but its missing. From SDN POD log on the same node I  could see its complaining about 'an incomplete annotation "cloud.network.openshift.io/egress-ipconfig"'. Will share more details over comments.

Description of problem:

OCP cluster installation (SNO) using assisted installer running on ACM hub cluster. 
Hub cluster is OCP 4.10.33
ACM is 2.5.4

When a cluster fails to install we remove the installation CRs and cluster namespace from the hub cluster (to eventually redeploy). The termination of the namespace hangs indefinitely (14+ hours) with finalizers remaining. 

To resolve the hang we can remove the finalizers by editing both the secret pointed to by BareMetalHost .spec.bmc.credentialsName and BareMetalHost CR. When these finalizers are removed the namespace termination completes within a few seconds.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

OCP 4.10.33
ACM 2.5.4

How reproducible:

Always

Steps to Reproduce:

1. Generate installation CRs (AgentClusterInstall, BMH, ClusterDeployment, InfraEnv, NMStateConfig, ...) with an invalid configuration parameter. Two scenarios validated to hit this issue:
  a. Invalid rootDeviceHint in BareMetalHost CR
  b. Invalid credentials in the secret referenced by BareMetalHost.spec.bmc.credentialsName
2. Apply installation CRs to hub cluster
3. Wait for cluster installation to fail
4. Remove cluster installation CRs and namespace

Actual results:

Cluster namespace remains in terminating state indefinitely:
$ oc get ns cnfocto1
NAME       STATUS        AGE    
cnfocto1   Terminating   17h

Expected results:

Cluster namespace (and all installation CRs in it) are successfully removed.

Additional info:

The installation CRs are applied to and removed from the hub cluster using argocd. The CRs have the following waves applied to them which affects the creation order (lowest to highest) and removal order (highest to lowest):
Namespace: 0
AgentClusterInstall: 1
ClusterDeployment: 1
NMStateConfig: 1
InfraEnv: 1
BareMetalHost: 1
HostFirmwareSettings: 1
ConfigMap: 1 (extra manifests)

—
In an OpenShift cluster with OpenShiftSDN network plugin with egressIP and NMstate operator configured, there are some conditions when the egressIP is deconfigured from the network interface.

The bug is 100% reproducible.

Steps for reproducing the issue are:

1. Install a cluster with OpenShiftSDN network plugin.

2. Configure egressip for a project.

3. Install NMstate operator.

4. Create a NodeNetworkConfigurationPolicy.

5. Identify on which node the egressIP is present.

6. Restart the nmstate-handler pod running on the identified node.

7. Verify that the egressIP is no more present.

Restarting the sdn pod related to the identified node will reconfigure the egressIP in the node.

This issue has a high impact since any changes triggered for the NMstate operator will prevent application traffic. For example, in the customer environment, the issue is triggered any time a new node is added to the cluster.

The expectation is that NMstate operator should not interfere with SDN configuration.

Description of problem:

Provisioning interface on master node not getting ipv4 dhcp ip address from bootstrap dhcp server on OCP 4.10.16 IPI BareMetal install.

Customer is performing an OCP 4.10.16 IPI BareMetal install and bootstrap node provisions just fine, but when master nodes are booted for provisioning, they are not getting an ipv4 address via dhcp. As such, the install is not moving forward at this point.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

OCP 4.10.16

How reproducible:

Perform OCP 4.10.16 IPI BareMetal install.

Actual results:

provisioning interface comes up (as evidenced by ipv6 address) but is not getting an ipv4 address via dhcp. OCP install / provisioning fails at this point.

Expected results:

provisioning interface successfully received an ipv4 ip address and successfully provisioned master nodes (and subsequently worker nodes as well.)

Additional info:

As a troubleshooting measure, manually adding an ipv4 ip address did allow the coreos image on the bootstrap node to be reached via curl.

Further, the kernel boot line for the first master node was updated for a static ip addresss assignment for further confirmation that the master node would successfully image this way which further confirming that the issue is the provisioning interface not receiving an ipv4 ip address from the dhcp server.

Description of problem:
I have a customer who created clusterquota for one of the namespace, it got created but the values were not reflecting under limits or not displaying namespace details.

Namespace Selector: []
Label Selector:
AnnotationSelector: map[openshift.io/requester:system:serviceaccount:application-service-accounts:test-sa]
Scopes: NotTerminating

-------- ---- ----
~~~

WORKAROUND: They recreated the clusterquota object (cache it off, delete it, create new) after which it displayed values as expected.

In the past, they saw similar behavior on their test cluster, there it was heavily utilized the etcd DB was much larger in size (>2.5Gi), and had many more objects (at that time, helm secrets were being cached for all deployments, and keeping a history of 10, so etcd was being bombarded).

This cluster the same "symptom" was noticed however etcd was nowhere near that in size nor the amount of etcd objects and/or helm cached secrets.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): OCP 4.9

How reproducible: Occurred only twice(once in test and in current cluster)

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Create ClusterQuota
2. Check AppliedClusterResourceQuota
3. The values and namespace is empty

Actual results: ClusterQuota should display the values

Expected results: ClusterQuota not displaying values

Description of problem:

The upgradeability check in CVO is throttled (essentially cached) for a nondeterministic period of time, same as the minimal sync period computed at runtime. The period can be up to 4 minutes, determined at CVO start time as 2minutes * (0..1 + 1). We agreed with Trevor that such throttling is unnecessarily aggressive (the check is not that expensive). It also causes CI flakes, because the matching test only has 3 minutes timeout. Additionally, the non-determinism and longer throttling results makes UX worse by actions done in the cluster may have their observable effect delayed.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

discovered in 4.10 -> 4.11 upgrade jobs

How reproducible:

The test seems to flake ~10% of 4.10->4.11 Azure jobs (sippy). There does not seem to be that much impact on non-Azure jobs though which is a bit weird.

Steps to Reproduce:

Inspect the CVO log and E2E logs from failing jobs with the provided [^check-cvo.py] helper:

$ ./check-cvo.py cvo.log && echo PASS || echo FAIL

Preferably, inspect CVO logs of clusters that just underwent an upgrade (upgrades makes the original problematic behavior more likely to surface)

Actual results:

$ ./check-cvo.py openshift-cluster-version_cluster-version-operator-5b6966c474-g4kwk_cluster-version-operator.log && echo PASS || echo FAIL
FAIL: Cache hit at 11:59:55.332339 0:03:13.665006 after check at 11:56:41.667333
FAIL: Cache hit at 12:06:22.663215 0:03:13.664964 after check at 12:03:08.998251
FAIL: Cache hit at 12:12:49.997119 0:03:13.665598 after check at 12:09:36.331521
FAIL: Cache hit at 12:19:17.328510 0:03:13.664906 after check at 12:16:03.663604
FAIL: Cache hit at 12:25:44.662290 0:03:13.666759 after check at 12:22:30.995531
Upgradeability checks:           5
Upgradeability check cache hits: 12
FAIL

Note that the bug is probabilistic, so not all unfixed clusters will exhibit the behavior. My guess of the incidence rate is about 30-40%.

Expected result

$ ./check-cvo.py openshift-cluster-version_cluster-version-operator-7b8f85d455-mk9fs_cluster-version-operator.log && echo PASS || echo FAIL
Upgradeability checks:           12
Upgradeability check cache hits: 11
PASS

The actual numbers are not relevant (unless the upgradeabilily check count is zero, which means the test is not conclusive, the script warns about that), lack of failure is.

The test passes. Also, the "Upgradeable conditions were recently checked, will try later." messages in CVO logs should never occur after a deterministic, short amount of time (I propose 1 minute) after upgradeability was checked.

I tested the throttling period in https://github.com/openshift/cluster-version-operator/pull/880. With the period of 15m, the test passrate was 4 of 9. Wiht the period of 1m, the test did not fail at all.

We added server groups for control plane and computes as part of OSASINFRA-2570, except for UPI that only creates server group for the control plane.

We need to update the UPI scripts to create server group for computes to be consistent with IPI and have the instruction at https://docs.openshift.com/container-platform/4.11/machine_management/creating_machinesets/creating-machineset-osp.html work out of the box in case customers want to create MachineSets on their UPI clusters.

Description of problem:

Whereabouts doesn't allow the use of network interface names that are not preceded by the prefix "net", see https://github.com/k8snetworkplumbingwg/whereabouts/issues/130.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

How reproducible:

Always

Steps to Reproduce:

1. Define two Pods, one with the interface name 'port1' and the other with 'net-port1':

test-ip-removal-port1:	
              k8s.v1.cni.cncf.io/networks:
                [
                  {
                    "name": "test-sriovnd",
                    "interface": "port1",
                    "namespace": "default"
                  }
                ]

test-ip-removal-net-port1:
              k8s.v1.cni.cncf.io/networks:
                [
                  {
                    "name": "test-sriovnd",
                    "interface": "net-port1",
                    "namespace": "default"
                  }
                ]

2. IP allocated in the IPPool:

kind: IPPool
...
spec:
  allocations:
    "16":
      id: ...
      podref: test-ecoloma-1/test-ip-removal-port1
    "17":
      id: ...
      podref: test-ecoloma-1/test-ip-removal-net-port1

3. When the ip-reconciler job is run, the allocation for the port with the interface name 'port1' is removed:

[13:29][]$ oc get cronjob -n openshift-multus
NAME            SCHEDULE       SUSPEND   ACTIVE   LAST SCHEDULE   AGE
ip-reconciler   */15 * * * *   False     0        14m             11d

[13:29][]$ oc get ippools.whereabouts.cni.cncf.io -n openshift-multus   2001-1b70-820d-2610---64 -o yaml
apiVersion: whereabouts.cni.cncf.io/v1alpha1
kind: IPPool
metadata:
...
spec:
  allocations:
    "17":
      id: ...
      podref: test-ecoloma-1/test-ip-removal-net-port1
  range: 2001:1b70:820d:2610::/64

[13:30][]$ oc get cronjob -n openshift-multus
NAME            SCHEDULE       SUSPEND   ACTIVE   LAST SCHEDULE   AGE
ip-reconciler   */15 * * * *   False     0        9s              11d

Actual results:

The network interface with a name that doesn't have a 'net' prefix is removed from the ip-reconciler cronjob.

Expected results:

The network interface must not be removed, regardless of the name.

Seen in an instance created recently by a 4.12.0-ec.2 GCP provider:

  "scheduling": {
    "automaticRestart": false,
    "onHostMaintenance": "MIGRATE",
    "preemptible": false,
    "provisioningModel": "STANDARD"
  },

From GCP's docs, they may stop instances on hardware failures and other causes, and we'd need automaticRestart: true to auto-recover from that. Also from GCP docs, the default for automaticRestart is true. And on the Go provider side, we doc:

If omitted, the platform chooses a default, which is subject to change over time, currently that default is "Always".

But the implementing code does not actually float the setting. Seems like a regression here, which is part of 4.10:

$ git clone https://github.com/openshift/machine-api-provider-gcp.git
$ cd machine-api-provider-gcp
$ git log --oneline origin/release-4.10 | grep 'migrate to openshift/api'
44f0f958 migrate to openshift/api

But that's not where the 4.9 and earlier code is located:

$ git branch -a | grep origin/release
  remotes/origin/release-4.10
  remotes/origin/release-4.11
  remotes/origin/release-4.12
  remotes/origin/release-4.13

Hunting for 4.9 code:

$ oc adm release info --commits quay.io/openshift-release-dev/ocp-release:4.9.48-x86_64 | grep gcp
  gcp-machine-controllers                        https://github.com/openshift/cluster-api-provider-gcp                       c955c03b2d05e3b8eb0d39d5b4927128e6d1c6c6
  gcp-pd-csi-driver                              https://github.com/openshift/gcp-pd-csi-driver                              48d49f7f9ef96a7a42a789e3304ead53f266f475
  gcp-pd-csi-driver-operator                     https://github.com/openshift/gcp-pd-csi-driver-operator                     d8a891de5ae9cf552d7d012ebe61c2abd395386e

So looking there:

$ git clone https://github.com/openshift/cluster-api-provider-gcp.git
$ cd cluster-api-provider-gcp
$ git log --oneline | grep 'migrate to openshift/api'
...no hits...
$ git grep -i automaticRestart origin/release-4.9  | grep -v '"description"\|compute-gen.go'
origin/release-4.9:vendor/google.golang.org/api/compute/v1/compute-api.json:        "automaticRestart": {

Not actually clear to me how that code is structured. So 4.10 and later GCP machine-API providers are impacted, and I'm unclear on 4.9 and earlier.

Description of problem:

When changing channels it's possible that multiple new conditional update risks will need to be evaluated. For instance, a cluster running 4.10.34 in a 4.10 channel today only has to evaluate `OpenStackNodeCreationFails` but when the channel is changed to a 4.11 channel multiple new risks require evaluation and the evaluation of new risks is throttled at one every 10 minutes. This means if there are three new risks it may take up to 30 minutes after the channel has changed for the full set of conditional updates to be computed. This leads to a perception that no update paths are recommended because most will not wait 30 minutes, they expect immediate feedback.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

4.10.z, 4.11.z, 4.12, 4.13

How reproducible:

100% 

Steps to Reproduce:

1. Install 4.10.34
2. Switch from stable-4.10 to stable-4.11
3. 

Actual results:

Observe no recommended updates for 10-20 minutes because all available paths to 4.11 have a risk associated with them

Expected results:

Risks are computed in a timely manner for an interactive UX, lets say < 10s

Additional info:

This was intentional in the design, we didn't want risks to continuously re-evaluate or overwhelm the monitoring stack, however we didn't anticipate that we'd have long standing pile of risks and realize how confusing the user experience would be.

We intend to work around this in the deployed fleet by converting older risks from `type: promql` to `type: Always` avoiding the evaluation period but preserving the notification. While this may lead customers to believe they're exposed to a risk they may not be, as long as the set of outstanding risks to the latest version is limited to no more than one it's likely no one will notice. All 4.10 and 4.11 clusters currently have a clear path toward relatively recent 4.10.z or 4.11.z with no more than one risk to be evaluated.

The dev console shows a list of samples. The user can create a sample based on a git repository. But some of these samples doesn't include a git repository reference and could not be created.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
Tested different frontend versions against a 4.11 cluster and all (oldest tested frontend was 4.8) show the sample without git repository.

But the result also depends on the installed samples operator and installed ImageStreams.

How reproducible:

Steps to Reproduce:

1. Switch to the Developer perspective
2. Navigate to Add > All Samples
3. Search for Jboss
4. Click on "JBoss EAP XP 4.0 with OpenJDK 11" (for example)

Actual results:
The git repository is not filled and the create button is disabled.

Expected results:
Samples without git repositories should not be displayed in the list.

Additional info:
The Git repository is saved as "sampleRepo" in the ImageStream tag section.

Looks like the fix should be in 4.12, but it still see it being 39 vs ~24 on an m6i instance type.

It seems that the kubelet applies this capacity to the node in 4.11 and earlier and, thus, unlikely to receive this fix for attachable volumes in the upstream CSI driver. 4.12 behavior is currently unknown but it seems that the kubelet might still be setting this capacity.

The actual issue is that kube scheduler schedules pods that require PVs to nodes where those PVs can not be attached.

As discussed previously by email, customer support case 03211616 requests a means to use the latest patch version of a given X.Y golang via imagestreams, with the blocking issue being the lack of X.Y tags for the go-toolset containers on RHCC.

The latter has now been fixed with the latest version also getting a :1.17 tag, and the imagestream source has been modified accordingly, which will get picked up in 4.12. We can now fix this in 4.11.z by backporting this to the imagestream files bundled in cluster-samples-operator.

Description of problem:

  intra namespace allow network policy doesn't work after applying ingress&egress deny all network policy

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

  OpenShift 4.10.12

How reproducible:

Always

Steps to Reproduce:
  1. Define deny all network policy for egress an ingress in a namespace:

apiVersion: networking.k8s.io/v1
kind: NetworkPolicy
metadata:
  name: default-deny-all
spec:
  podSelector: {}
  policyTypes:
  - Ingress
  - Egress

2. Define the following network policy to allow the traffic between the pods in the namespace:

apiVersion: networking.k8s.io/v1
kind: NetworkPolicy
metadata:
  name: allow-intra-namespace-001
spec:
  egress:
  - to:
    - podSelector: {}
  ingress:
  - from:
    - podSelector: {}
  podSelector: {}
  policyTypes:
  - Ingress
  - Egress 

3. Test the connectivity between two pods from the namespace.

Actual results:

   The connectivity is not allowed

Expected results:

  The connectivity should be allowed between pods from the same namespace.

Additional info:

  After performing a test and analyzing SDN flows for the namespace:

We see that the following rule doesn't match because `reg1` hasn't been defined:

IPV6 interface and IP is missing in all pods created in OCP 4.12 EC-2.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

4.12

How reproducible:

Every time

Steps to Reproduce:

We create network-attachment-definitions.k8s.cni.cncf.io in OCP cluster at namespace scope for our software pods to get IPV6 IPs. 

Actual results:

Pods do not receive IPv6 addresses

Description of problem:

When the cluster is configured with Proxy the swift client in the image registry operator is not using the proxy to authenticate with OpenStack, so it's unable to reach the OpenStack API. This issue became evident since recently the support was added to not fallback to cinder in case swift is available[1].

libovsdb builds transaction log messages for every transaction and then throws them away if the log level is not 4 or above. This wastes a bunch of CPU at scale and increases pod ready latency.
