Description
Fixes a bug in the NATS JetStream scaler where a ScaledObject referencing a consumer that does not exist in the target stream would cause the workload to scale up to
maxReplicaCount.Root cause
getMaxMsgLag()iterates the stream's consumers looking for the configured one. If it isn't found, the function previously fell back to returnings.stream.State.LastSequence- the stream's last published sequencenumber. On any non-trivial stream this value is very large, exceeds any reasonable
lagThreshold, and the HPA scales the workload out to its maximum.Fix
getMaxMsgLag()now returns(int64, error)and surfaces an error when the configured consumer is missing, instead of returning the stream's last sequence.GetMetricsAndActivitypropagates that error so user-configuredfallbackbehaviour can take over.Behaviour change
Before: scaler silently reported a large metric and scaled to max replicas.
After: scaler returns an error; the ScaledObject's
fallbackcan engage, or the metric becomes unavailable until the consumer is created.Checklist
Fixes #7657
