Lifecycle

The ocs-operator is required to be present as long as the container storage bundle remains installed. This is managed as part of OLM’s reconciliation of the Container Storage CSV. At least one instance of the pod should be in Ready state.

The operator operands such as CRDs should not affect the lifecycle of the operator. An OCSInitialization CR should always exist. The operator creates one if it does not exist. The creation and deletion of StorageClusters is an operation outside the operator’s control and must be initiated by the administrator or automated with the appropriate API calls.
