StorageClass polling none

Description Samuel Padgett 2020-12-09 17:23:33 UTC
The OCS feature detection requests storageclusters and storageclasses over and over again. It looks like there are runtime errors in the feature detectors that cause OCS to retry.

Inspecting the code, I see some issues here: https://github.com/spadgett/console/blob/203c628101349eeaaf140ec3e7c36018af054784/frontend/packages/ceph-storage-plugin/src/features.ts#L73-L91

For instance, this line will be a runtime error if the storagecluster is not found:

    const isInternal = _.isEmpty(storageCluster.spec.externalStorage);

It appears that any status code other than 404 will result in a retry. So if we get a 403 for instance, it will keep retrying even though the user doesn't have permission.

I suspect there are similar problem in `detectRGW` causing storageclasses to be requested over and over again.

@badhikar can you look into this.

StorageClass polling

I'm still seeing StorageClass polling after the fix.

Hi Samuel, I moved the QA contact to you. Please let us know in case it is not OK. Thanks

Comment 9 Samuel Padgett 2021-02-09 20:28:33 UTC
Verified on 4.7.0-rc.0. OCS no longer constantly polls storageclusters or storageclasses when not enabled.
