The tenant chart renders both releases with Flux's default install strategy, and install remediation is an uninstall in every case Flux offers. Neither release disables hooks on it, so a remediated install runs each chart's post-delete cleanup Job, and those Jobs delete data on purpose. The etcd one removes the data-etcd-<ordinal> PVCs by name, because the etcd-operator does not reclaim them when the EtcdCluster goes. The seaweedfs one removes the volume PVCs by label and explicitly reclaims the keep-protected CNPG Cluster holding the filer metadata, precisely because nothing else removes it. Both are correct for a real uninstall. Remediation is what calls them, on a release that is only starting slowly. So an install that misses its budget does not merely restart. It destroys the datastore the tenant control planes keep their state in, or the object store's data together with the metadata database that indexes it, and the next attempt begins from nothing. RetryOnFailure keeps the manifests applied and retries the failed release, so no uninstall happens and neither cleanup Job runs. Both actions carry the strategy because the controller performs that retry as an upgrade, so on install alone the retry's own failure falls through to upgrade remediation. The cost is that a real upgrade failure retries rather than rolls back, which gives up no stable safety net: with retries: -1 and the default strategy, upgrade remediation already rolled back and retried without end. The remediation blocks stay because an absent release consults install and an out-of-sync one consults upgrade, both by retry count rather than by strategy. The other side of the trade is that the uninstall was also the only automatic clean slate. On a tenant holding no data yet, an install that wedges on a bad resource state now retries against that state until an operator removes the release. For a release that owns data this is the right exchange, because lost data does not come back and a wedged install does. This covers two of the tenant's data-owning releases. The chart's monitoring release destroys its storage on a remediated install as well and is outside this change, as is the rest of the catalog, whose nested releases want the question asked one at a time.

<!-- Thank you for making a contribution! Here are some tips for you: - Use Conventional Commits for the PR title: `type(scope): description` - Types: feat, fix, docs, style, refactor, perf, test, build, ci, chore - Scopes are not an exhaustive list — pick the most specific scope for the change and extend the list when a genuinely new area appears. Examples: - System components: dashboard, platform, operator, cilium, kube-ovn, linstor, fluxcd, cluster-api - Managed apps: postgres, mariadb, redis, kafka, clickhouse, virtual-machine, kubernetes - Development and maintenance: api, hack, tests, ci, docs, maintenance - Breaking changes: append `!` after type/scope (`feat(api)!: ...`) or add a `BREAKING CHANGE:` footer - If it's a work in progress, consider creating this PR as a draft. - Don't hesistate to ask for opinion and review in the community chats, even if it's still a draft. - Add the label `backport` if it's a bugfix that needs to be backported to a previous version. --> ## What this PR does The tenant chart renders the etcd and seaweedfs releases with no install strategy, so they get Flux's default, and install remediation is an uninstall in every case Flux offers. Neither release sets `spec.uninstall.disableHooks`, which defaults to false, so that uninstall runs the app chart's `post-delete` cleanup Job. Nothing unusual is configured anywhere along that chain: fail early, uninstall, hooks. Those Jobs delete data on purpose. The etcd one removes the `data-etcd-<ordinal>` PVCs by name, because the etcd-operator does not reclaim them when the EtcdCluster goes. The seaweedfs one removes the volume PVCs by label and explicitly reclaims the keep-protected CNPG Cluster holding the filer metadata, because nothing else would. Both are right for a real uninstall, and neither hook is at fault here. Remediation is what calls them, on a release that is only starting slowly. So an install that misses its budget does not restart. It destroys the datastore the tenant control planes keep their state in, or the object store's data together with the metadata database that indexes it, and the next attempt begins from nothing. That budget is not a comfortable margin. The seaweedfs release has `timeout: 10m`, and `hack/e2e-install-cozystack.bats` already records that on a loaded runner the tenant stack only starts creating pods around 9 to 10 minutes in. The window CI observes and the window that triggers this are the same window. `RetryOnFailure` keeps the manifests applied and retries the failed release as an upgrade. No uninstall happens, so neither cleanup Job runs and the install already under way carries on instead of starting over. Both actions carry the strategy. The controller runs the retry of a failed install as an upgrade, so with install alone the retry's own failure falls through to upgrade remediation. The remediation blocks stay: an absent release consults install, an out-of-sync one consults upgrade, both by retry count rather than by strategy. One trade is that a real upgrade failure retries instead of rolling back. That costs no stable safety net. With `retries: -1` and the default strategy, upgrade remediation was already rolling back and retrying without end, so the release never rested in the rolled-back state either. The other side of the trade is that the uninstall was also the only automatic clean slate. On a tenant holding no data yet, an install that wedges on a bad resource state now retries against that state until an operator removes the release. For a release that owns data that is the right exchange, because lost data does not come back and a wedged install does. This covers two of the tenant's data-owning releases. The monitoring release carries the same default and a cleanup Job that deletes its PVCs as well, and is left for its own change, as is the rest of the catalog, whose nested releases want the question asked one at a time. Same shape as #3552 and #3581. Relates to #3555 and #3576. ### Screenshots <!-- REQUIRED for UI changes: attach screenshots or screen recordings demonstrating the visual impact of your changes. PRs with UI changes without screenshots will not be merged. --> ### Downstream repositories <!-- Cozystack is upstream for repositories that are NOT kept in sync with it automatically, and nothing in CI compares the two sides, so a change here can break them silently. Which change forces what, and which file to touch, is the trigger map in docs/agents/contributing.md under "Downstream Repositories". Walk it before you tick anything. IF YOU ARE AN AI AGENT OR AN LLM, THIS IS PART OF THE TASK, NOT A FORM TO FILL IN: 1. Walk the trigger map against the actual diff of this PR, file by file. Do not decide from the PR title or from your memory of what you changed. 2. For every repository you tick, open the follow-up PR there and link it on the same line. A ticked box with no link claims work that does not exist, which is worse than an empty box. Search that repository for an open PR or issue covering it first, and link that instead of filing a duplicate. 3. When the follow-up is out of scope, or needs a decision that is not yours to make, open an issue in that repository instead, link that, and say so in the PR body. Do not push a speculative PR into another repository just to fill a line here. 4. Do not tick "No downstream repository is affected" to make the checklist go away. If you are unsure, leave every box empty and say so in the PR body, so a human decides. --> - [x] No downstream repository is affected by this change - [ ] [cozystack/website](https://github.com/cozystack/website) - follow-up: - [ ] [cozystack/terraform-provider-cozystack](https://github.com/cozystack/terraform-provider-cozystack) - follow-up: - [ ] [cozystack/ansible-cozystack](https://github.com/cozystack/ansible-cozystack) - follow-up: - [ ] [cozystack/ccp](https://github.com/cozystack/ccp) - follow-up: - [ ] [cozystack/talm](https://github.com/cozystack/talm) - follow-up: - [ ] [cozystack/cozyhr](https://github.com/cozystack/cozyhr) - follow-up: - [ ] [cozystack/cozy-proxy](https://github.com/cozystack/cozy-proxy) - follow-up: - [ ] [cozystack/cozystack-telemetry-server](https://github.com/cozystack/cozystack-telemetry-server) - follow-up: - [ ] [cozystack/external-apps-example](https://github.com/cozystack/external-apps-example) - follow-up: - [ ] [cozystack/examples](https://github.com/cozystack/examples) - follow-up: ### Release note <!-- Write a release note: - Explain what has changed internally and for users. - Start with the same `type(scope):` prefix as in the PR title - Follow the guidelines at https://github.com/kubernetes/community/blob/master/contributors/guide/release-notes.md. --> ```release-note fix(tenant): retry a failed etcd or seaweedfs install instead of uninstalling the release, so a slow first install no longer runs the cleanup hooks that delete the etcd data volumes, the SeaweedFS volumes and the filer metadata database ``` <!-- This is an auto-generated comment: release notes by coderabbit.ai --> ## Summary by CodeRabbit * **Reliability Improvements** * Improved installation and upgrade recovery for etcd and SeaweedFS by automatically retrying failed operations every 30 seconds. * Preserved ongoing remediation attempts to help services recover without uninstalling or rolling back after failures. * **Tests** * Added coverage to verify retry behavior and remediation settings for both services. <!-- end of auto-generated comment: release notes by coderabbit.ai --> (cherry picked from commit 36f83fa) Signed-off-by: Myasnikov Daniil <[email protected]>
## What this PR does Backports to release-1.6, picked from main with `cherry-pick -x` in merge order. Each commit keeps the original message and its `(cherry picked from commit …)` line. - [#3581](#3581) fix(kubernetes): retry the tenant CSI install instead of uninstalling it - [#3621](#3621) fix(harbor): retry the nested system install instead of uninstalling it - [#3630](#3630) fix(tenant): retry failed etcd and seaweedfs installs in place - [#3735](#3735) fix(vm-instance): disable helm readiness wait on the VMInstance release - [#4799](#4799) fix: typo in monitoring-agents values.yaml ### Conflicts resolved by hand - [#3735](#3735): only `pkg/config/config_test.go` conflicted. release-1.6 has no `HelmServerSideApplyAnnotation`, so that test entry is left out, and two comments in `pkg/config/config.go` and `internal/controller/applicationdefinition_controller.go` are adjusted to what exists on this line. The rest is the original as is. Checked on this branch before opening: `helm template` of `monitoring-agents` and `vm-instance-rd`, `go build`, `go vet`, `go test` and the commit trailer check pass. Not run locally: `helm unittest` (plugin not installed) and `helm template` of `harbor`, `kubernetes` and `tenant`, which need values to render at base and head alike. CI runs the unit suites. ### Screenshots Not a UI change. ### Downstream repositories - [x] No downstream repository is affected by this change - [ ] [cozystack/website](https://github.com/cozystack/website) - follow-up: - [ ] [cozystack/terraform-provider-cozystack](https://github.com/cozystack/terraform-provider-cozystack) - follow-up: - [ ] [cozystack/ansible-cozystack](https://github.com/cozystack/ansible-cozystack) - follow-up: - [ ] [cozystack/ccp](https://github.com/cozystack/ccp) - follow-up: - [ ] [cozystack/talm](https://github.com/cozystack/talm) - follow-up: - [ ] [cozystack/cozyhr](https://github.com/cozystack/cozyhr) - follow-up: - [ ] [cozystack/cozy-proxy](https://github.com/cozystack/cozy-proxy) - follow-up: - [ ] [cozystack/cozystack-telemetry-server](https://github.com/cozystack/cozystack-telemetry-server) - follow-up: - [ ] [cozystack/external-apps-example](https://github.com/cozystack/external-apps-example) - follow-up: - [ ] [cozystack/examples](https://github.com/cozystack/examples) - follow-up: ### Release note ```release-note fix(kubernetes): the tenant CSI HelmRelease now retries a failed install instead of being uninstalled between attempts, so a failed install no longer takes the tenant's CSI node plugin and its propagated StorageClasses away while it retries. The same strategy applies to the upgrade action, which it has to: a retried install runs as an upgrade. One consequence is operator-visible: a failed CSI upgrade in a tenant cluster now retries the new manifests every 30s instead of rolling back to the previous release. fix(harbor): retry a failed Harbor install instead of uninstalling the release, so a slow first install no longer deletes the Redis volume and starts over fix(tenant): retry a failed etcd or seaweedfs install instead of uninstalling the release, so a slow first install no longer runs the cleanup hooks that delete the etcd data volumes, the SeaweedFS volumes and the filer metadata database fix(vm-instance): VMInstance HelmReleases no longer hang InProgress or roll back healthy VMs; the release no longer waits on VirtualMachine readiness, which helm-controller's kstatus poller cannot assess correctly for KubeVirt VMs. Existing VMInstance releases are brought in line automatically on upgrade. fix: typo in monitoring-agents values.yaml ```
