LI83263: CANNOT ENABLE ANALTYTICS BACKUPS ON OVA DUE TO INSUFFICIENT CPU

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• When using VMWare OVA version with deployment profile n1xc4.m32
  and the VM have 4 CPUs allocated. After enable backup for
  Analytics server a new pod called "warehouse" will show up which
  cause the overall CPU become insufficient.
  

Local fix

• Override the CPU resource for the ingestion pod to allow enough
  CPU for the warehouse pod to start. Here is an example that can
  be used:
  spec: template:
  - name: ingestion
    containers:
    - name: ingestion
      resources:
        requests:
          cpu: 1250m
  As this is a OVA environment, this override must be specified by
  an extra values file.
  

Problem summary

• On OVA, when the Analytics profile is n1xc2.m16, n1xc4.m32,
  n3xc4.m16, or n3xc4.m32, and the number of CPUs in the Analytics
  node is equal to the number required by the profile, enabling
  backups will attempt to start the Warehouse pod. However,
  because there is not enough remaining CPU available to meet the
  Warehouse CPU request, Kubernetes fails to start it and it's
  left in pending state.
  

Problem conclusion

• Analytics pod CPU requests have been minorly relabalanced to
  ensure there is enough capacity for warehouse to deploy.
  Fix targeted at 10.0.8.1
