Bug 1942395

Created attachment 1765885 [details]
dc-detail-page

Description of problem:
The "Status" field is always "Updating" on dc detail page after deployment has failed 

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
4.8.0-0.nightly-2021-03-22-104536

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Create a dc which will fail to deployment. Example yaml:
apiVersion: apps.openshift.io/v1
kind: DeploymentConfig
metadata:
  name: faildc
spec:
  strategy:
    type: Rolling
    rollingParams:
      updatePeriodSeconds: 1
      intervalSeconds: 1
      timeoutSeconds: 20
      maxUnavailable: 25%
      maxSurge: 25%
    resources: {}
    activeDeadlineSeconds: 30
  triggers:
    - type: ConfigChange
  selector:
    app: hello-openshiftfail
  replicas: 1
  template:
    metadata:
      labels:
        app: hello-openshiftfail
    spec:
      containers:
        - name: hello-openshift
          image: openshift/hello-openshiftdc
          ports:
            - containerPort: 8080
2.Wait after the deployment failed, the rc satus was "Failed"
3.Check on the dc detail page.

Actual results:
3.The "Status" field was always "Updating" for hours.

Expected results:
3.Use would feel confused about what is updating all the time. It's better to show correct status, eg "Up to date", "Failed". 

Additional info:
I notice the status when I check https://issues.redhat.com/browse/ODC-5594, in which I need deal with dc in "Active" and "Not active" status, but I can not guess the exact meaning of "Updating" status on dc detail page.
