TCA-3.1 Fix pulling sonobuoy image from external repository in Airgap Environment

Products

• VMware
• VMware Telco Cloud Automation

Issue/Introduction

Symptoms:
In airgap environment, run diagnosis report in TCA GUI for any workload & management cluster fails with error "Fail to get Sonobuoy status in time and got error message exit status 1. Please retry".

Environment

VMware Telco Cloud Automation 3.0, 3.1
VMware Telco Cloud Automation 2.3

 

Cause

It was observed that sonobuoy image would be pulled from external repo in Airgap environment. That's because when test-controller pod starts, it would get its own image path immediately to get airgap repo. Sometimes it couldn't get it timely.

Resolution

To resolve this issue, perform the following steps:

1. Login to management cluster and run this command
 

# kubectl delete pods -n tca-system -l app.kubernetes.io/instance=test-controller

2. Wait new pod running
 

# kubectl get pods -n tca-system -l app.kubernetes.io/instance=test-controller

3. Rerun diagnosis from TCA UI and check status.
