Known issues and limitations in Planning Analytics

The following known issues and limitations apply to Planning Analytics.

Known issues

The cpd-cli export-import command works only on the NFS storage class

Applies to: 4.8.1 and 4.8.2

Fixed in: 4.8.3

If you are using the cpd-cli export-import utility to migrate Planning Analytics data between Cloud Pak for Data clusters, the command does not work if you use any storage class other than NFS. If you run this command on another storage class, the import and export jobs are stuck indefinitely.

Workaround

To temporarily resolve this issue, run the following command before you migrate Planning Analytics data:

oc get cm pa-exim-cm -n ${NAMESPACE} -o json | jq '.data[]|=split("\n")' | \
sed "/last-applied/d" | sed -E "/redis-data1|REDIS/,/redis/d" | \
jq '.data[]|=join("\n")' | oc apply -f -

This command removes references to the redis mount from the pa-exim-cm configMap. After you run this command, you can use the cpd-cli export-import command on other storage classes. This is a temporary workaround because the Planning Analytics operator might revert the changes and restore the references to the redis mount.
