Bug 2058282

During cluster upgrades, web console pages that hold watches can stop updating. It appears that the WebSockets are either closing and not getting reopened, or they stay open but stop receiving new messages. Console has logic that will attempt to reopen closed WebSockets, but it is not working during upgrades.

This is particularly problematic when users initiate an upgrade through the console cluster settings page. We watch cluster operators and machine config pools to show the progress during upgrades, but the progress bars stop updating midway. We are also adding a pause/resume button for updating machine config pools. The button doesn't change state when clicked since the WebSockets aren't getting new messages.

I'm opening this against the Management Console component to investigate further. It could be an issue with ingress or the API server. We should determine the WebSockets are getting closed and whether console tries to reopen them. (We should be printing messages to the JS console when this happens.) It would also be good to understand what cluster operator is being updated when the updates stop occurring. A HAR file collected during upgrade could be helpful. Another thing to try is to keep the console side-by-side with a terminal window that is watching updates to ClusterOperators to make sure they're in sync and track when the UI updates stop.
