| Description | Add Storage Profile Workaround for K8s/OpenShift |
|---|---|
| Notes | When the OpenShift Virtualization operator is installed (kubevirt), another project from CNCF is pulled in called "Containerized Data Importer". The goal of this project is to create the "connection" between a PVC and a VM and also provide the ability to have ready qcow2 images as PVCs to be used when creating a VM (by default in OCP, you get the latest image of Fedora, CentOS, RHEL 8, 9 and 10). A storage profile is created per storage class. Because Lightbits is currently not appearing in containerized-data-importer/pkg/storagecapabilities/storagecapabilities.go at main · kubevirt/containerized-data-importer, the profile is created with an empty spec. If requesting a PVC (or PVCs) with RWX when creating the VM, the VM creation will fail when trying to create the OS PVC. The VM creation waits a long time for the PVC to map to the worker node. |
| Workaround | Run "oc edit # oc get storageprofile lb-rf1-rwx-block -o yaml", and change the spec to: spec: claimPropertySets:
Once you save the edit, you can recreate the VM. |
