Description Samuel Padgett 2020-02-06 14:29:17 UTC

In 4.4, OpenShift console added support for two ClusterServiceVersion annotations:

* operatorframework.io/suggested-namespace - console will suggest and create the suggested namespace for the operator
* operatorframework.io/cluster-monitoring=true - console will ask the user if they want to enable monitoring the operator and apply the label to the created namespace

Operators that require a specific namespace and need to enable monitoring should add these annotations to give the UI hints. This will avoid extra steps requiring users to create and label the namespace outside of the UI.
