Compute operator pod crash after upgrading to IBM Fusion 2.11.0

General Page

This hotfix applies only to Lenovo server-based racks that run IBM Fusion HCI and use an IPv6 stack on the provisioning network, and upgraded to IBM Fusion 2.11.
How to identify IPv6 stack on provisioning network:
From IBM Fusion HCI user interface:
 
  1. Log in to the IBM Fusion HCI user interface.
  2. Go to Infrastructure > Nodes.
  3. Click any node that is available in the inventory page.
  4. Check the IP address. If it is in IPv6 format, then the rack is with IPv6 stack on provisioning network.
     
From OC command line interface:
 
  1. Make sure you are logged in to the cluster from CLI.
  2. Run the following command:
    oc get cmo <monitoring-CR-of-any-node-n ibm-spectrum-fusion-ns -o jsonpath='{.spec.nodes[0].ip}'
  3. It gives the IP address of the node. If it is in IPv6 format, then the rack is with IPv6 stack on provisioning network.

Compute operator image:

cp.icr.io/cp/fusion-hci/isf-compute-operator@sha256:f71ae95ce3e3421c7e78ba07fe44f3df74e48dc23bc4741876acce57c588219d

Requirements for offline environments:

  1. Download the mirroring script compute-2.11.0patch-offline-mirror.sh.
  2. Run the following command to apply the patch.
    Note: Make sure you are logged in to the cluster from CLI.

    chmod +x <compute-2.11.0patch-offline-mirror.sh>
  3. Run the script with the required parameters:
    ./compute-2.11.0patch-offline-mirror.sh <compute operator Image> <offline_registry_path>

    The script logs output to the file:
    /tmp/compute-2.11.0patch-offline-mirror.sh_log.txt

  4. Retrieve the mirrored image name from this log file.

    Example log entry:
    Mirrored image: fhtyucibston2-2345.xyz.com/docker/mirror-fusion/cp/isf-compute-operator:0.0.1hotfix3

    In this example, the image to use is:
    fhtyucibston2-2345.xyz.com/docker/mirror-fusion/cp/isf-compute-operator:0.0.1hotfix3

  5. Follow the resolution steps to apply the hotfix.

Requirements for online environments:

  • Use the below image directly to apply the hotfix:

    cp.icr.io/cp/fusion-hci/isf-compute-operator@sha256:f71ae95ce3e3421c7e78ba07fe44f3df74e48dc23bc4741876acce57c588219d

Resolution:

  1. Download the script compute-image-patch-2.11.0.sh.
  2. Run the following command to apply the patch.

    chmod +x <compute-image-patch-2.11.0.sh>
  3. Make sure you are logged in to the cluster from CLI.
  4. Run the script with the correct image:
    ./compute-image-patch-2.11.0.sh <compute operator image>
    • Use the online image for online environments.

    • Use the mirrored image obtained in Step 4 of the offline environments requirements.

  5. Verify whether the isf-compute-operator pod is running with the new production image of the compute operator by using the following commands:

    • Run the following command to get the list of pods.
      oc get po

    • Run the following command to get the details of the isf-compute-operator pod.
      oc describe po isf-compute-operator-pod-name

    • Verify whether the container manager image is updated with the new production image.
