How reproducible:


Steps to Reproduce:
1. Create a cluster and add a manifest as per: https://github.com/openshift/assisted-service/blob/master/docs/user-guide/install-customization.md#manifests

In my case I had
$ curl -X GET http://AI/api/assisted-install/v1/clusters/6c648ad3-f6a5-4c18-abd4-99bca732aa7a/manifests
[{"file_name":"openshift/99-openshift-machineconfig-master-registry.yaml","folder":"manifests"}]

2. start install and make installation fail
3. Reset the cluster
4. Check the existing manifests

Actual results:
The manifests list is empty:
$ curl -X GET http://AI/api/assisted-install/v1/clusters/6c648ad3-f6a5-4c18-abd4-99bca732aa7a/manifests
[]


Expected results:
Manifests to still be present, or the user to be warned that the customizations were deleted.

Comment 1 Moti Asayag 2021-03-16 22:09:20 UTC
The behavior was changed by https://github.com/openshift/assisted-service/pull/711.
Before that PR, ResetCluster used to remove files by pre-defined name.
With this PR, the entire folder (minus logs) is deleted.
The fix should skip manifests files instead of deleting them.

Comment 2 Moti Asayag 2021-03-16 22:12:17 UTC
https://github.com/openshift/assisted-service/blob/master/internal/cluster/cluster.go#L770 is the place to skip the manifest files deletion

Comment 3 Nick Carboni 2021-03-18 13:05:39 UTC
I'm curious if the intent of https://github.com/openshift/assisted-service/pull/711 was explicitly to remove the manifests.
I suppose manifests couldn't really influence the success or failure of an install, but probably worth getting Igal's input.

@atraeger , @itsoiref what do you think?

Comment 5 Ronnie Lazar 2021-05-06 08:14:19 UTC
We need to treat the customizations just like all other configuration and not delete them when the cluster was reset

Comment 6 Moti Asayag 2021-05-06 09:04:33 UTC
(In reply to Ronnie Lazar from comment #5)
> We need to treat the customizations just like all other configuration and
> not delete them when the cluster was reset

That was implemented and merged by https://github.com/openshift/assisted-service/pull/1367

Verified with:

"assisted-installer":"quay.io/ocpmetal/assisted-installer:c76ba93cdd5b3e6f2734a0e7b35ab32213e1021a",
"assisted-installer-agent":"quay.io/ocpmetal/assisted-installer-agent:72b14c873597f3883eab9af308fb803b344af2d0",
"assisted-installer-controller":"quay.io/ocpmetal/assisted-installer-controller:c76ba93cdd5b3e6f2734a0e7b35ab32213e1021a",
"assisted-service":"quay.io/ocpmetal/assisted-service:1709a50d59bb8aba03713ade2f4869f86a43b8a3"

Cluster installation was started, manifest were checked and after few minutes the installation was aborted. 
Checked the manifests and did a cluster reset via UI. 

Re-checked the manifests, proxy settings, ignition config overrides and those were still there. 

Marking as Verified
