+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #1894861 +++ Description of problem: Verification of the installation of the Performance Addon Operator (PAO) is done by checking that the operator is running in the openshift-performance-addon namespace. As per documentation, the suggested namespace for installing Performance Addon Operator is openshift-performance-addon-operator in release 4.6. https://docs.openshift.com/container-platform/4.6/scalability_and_performance/cnf-performance-addon-operator-for-low-latency-nodes.html#install-operator-cli_cnf-master However, it is possible to let the user install it in a different namespace.  Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): PAO 4.6 OCP 4.6.1 How reproducible: Follow the official documentation to install the PAO from CLI (https://docs.openshift.com/container-platform/4.6/scalability_and_performance/cnf-performance-addon-operator-for-low-latency-nodes.html#install-operator-cli_cnf-master) Actual results: When running cnf-tests, it returns an error because PAO is not running in the "expected cnf-test" namespace. $ podman run -v $(pwd)/:/kubeconfig:Z -v $(pwd)/reports:/reports:Z -e KUBECONFIG=/kubeconfig/kubeconfig -e DISCOVERY_MODE=true -e CNF_TESTS_IMAGE=cnf-tests-rhel8:4.6 -e DPDK_TESTS_IMAGE=dpdk-base-rhel8:4.6 registry.redhat.io/openshift4/cnf-tests-rhel8:4.6 /usr/bin/test-run.sh -ginkgo.focus="performance" running /usr/bin/validationsuite -ginkgo.focus=performance I1104 15:08:27.009776 8 request.go:621] Throttling request took 1.048365068s, request: GET:https://api.cnf10.kni.lab.eng.bos.redhat.com:6443/apis/authentication.k8s.io/v1?timeout=32s Running Suite: CNF Features e2e validation ========================================== Random Seed: 1604502504 Will run 3 of 17 specs SSS ------------------------------ • Failure [0.168 seconds] validation /remote-source/app/validationsuite/cluster/validation.go:39 performance /remote-source/app/validationsuite/cluster/validation.go:78 should have the performance operator namespace [It] Expected results: cnf-test suite should detect the operator properly and execute the tests. Additional info:
Verified with openshift4-cnf-tests:v4.6.0-31 on top of OCP 4.6.5 looks good.
