Description David Johnston 2022-03-24 15:16:46 UTC
Description of problem:
Ingress operator is trying to contact sts directly  "sts.amazonaws.com" as opposed to the configured VPC endpoint for the cluster. To be clear this is not ok as the cluster needs to be as air-gapped as possible. Also worth noting that other OCP components work fine with the STS VPC endpoint



OpenShift release version:
4.9.latest

Is there any possible known workaround for this in the meantime?

Comment 3 Miciah Dashiel Butler Masters 2022-03-29 15:38:48 UTC
After some discussion offline, this appears to be a configuration issue.  Setting blocker-, low priority.  

For disconnected clusters, OpenShift can be configured not to manage DNS, and the cluster administrator can configure DNS manually.  Use the following command to configure OpenShift not to manage DNS:

    oc patch dnses.config.openshift.io/cluster --type=merge --patch='{"spec":{"privateZone":null,"publicZone":null}}' 

We may need a documentation change for this issue.

Comment 5 Patrick Dillon 2022-04-05 01:04:40 UTC
Moving this to the installer. We will update docs to indicate that disconnected clusters must drop the zones from the dns configs.
