Description Federico Paolinelli 2020-11-11 15:01:14 UTC 
+++ 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.

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.
