Description W. Trevor King 2021-05-28 05:18:24 UTC
Both cause sporadic CI failures, like:

$ curl -s 'https://search.ci.openshift.org/search?search=pods+found+with+invalid+priority+class&maxAge=96h&context=4&type=junit' | jq -r 'to_entries[].value | to_entries[].value[].context[]' | sed -n 's/\(.*\)-[a-z0-9]*\( (currently.*\)/\1...\2/p' | sort | uniq -c
      1 kube-system/openvpn-client-649bcb9d98... (currently "")
     12 openshift-infra/recycler-for-nfs... (currently "")

because [1] is not using one of the recommended priorityClassName values [2].  And, from [3]:

: [sig-arch] Managed cluster should set requests but not limits [Suite:openshift/conformance/parallel]	1s
fail [github.com/onsi/ginkgo.0-origin.0+incompatible/internal/leafnodes/runner.go:113]: May 27 02:36:37.668: Pods in platform namespaces are not following resource request/limit rules or do not have an exception granted:
  v1/Pod/openshift-infra/recycler-for-nfs-hc8cz/container/recycler-container does not have a cpu request (rule: "v1/Pod/openshift-infra/recycler-for-nfs-hc8cz/container/recycler-container/request[cpu]")
  v1/Pod/openshift-infra/recycler-for-nfs-hc8cz/container/recycler-container does not have a memory request (rule: "v1/Pod/openshift-infra/recycler-for-nfs-hc8cz/container/recycler-container/request[memory]")

Setting requests will help the scheduler find a reasonable node to host you.  This seems unambiguously useful.

Setting openshift-user-critical for priorityClassName will slot you in above most user workloads.  Seems reasonable too, as long as you don't take up too many resources.  I also don't see a problem with either carving yourself out an exception in [4], or updating [4] to add some new really-low-priority class name, if either of those sound more appealing.
