Description Erik Nelson 2020-08-28 21:06:58 UTC
Description of problem:
Running the downstream must-gather image on my OCP4 cluster hangs and produces a number of errors. The command:

oc adm must-gather --image=registry.redhat.io/rhcam-1-2/openshift-migration-must-gather-rhel8 --dest-dir=.

Sample of errors I'm able to get (I can't seem to get the whole log):

Hi, based on details from the customer ticket and experiments on a dev cluster, I would:

1. Recommend CU to extend timeout for must-gather feature (600s by default) e.g. to 3600s (add parameter --timeout=3600 to the must-gather command)

2. Look deeper on listing cluster loop [1] which seems to duplicate data dump operations in case of multiple non-host clusters discovered. And provide optimization PR as a fix of this BZ.

Comment 3 Derek Whatley 2020-09-17 21:46:26 UTC
After looking deeper into this issue, we saw some opportunities for performance and logging enhancements to konveyor must-gather. 

These improvements have been merged to master and release-1.3.0 branches. These changes should included in the next round of 1.3.0 builds

Verified using MTC 1.3

openshift-migration-rhel7-operator@sha256:66efea27fa3d6498ef8c722ef9dec45ceba2a9db695b8092e0e65b5070c94d87


After testing several platforms and versions (testruns for 1.3), we have not seen this problem in our testruns.

We move this issue to VERIFIED status.
