Issue with RMT in Air Gapped Mode on Kubernetes using Helm Chart #1171

Open rafaprata opened 2 weeks ago

rafaprata commented 2 weeks ago

Description:

I am trying to use RMT in Air Gapped mode within an environment without internet access, as documented here: SUSE Documentation.

I am deploying RMT on my Kubernetes cluster using the Helm chart available at SUSE Helm Charts.

However, I am encountering several difficulties:

  1. SCC Credentials Requirement: The necessity to add SCC credentials poses a challenge in an air-gapped environment.
  2. Hardcoded sync_systems Setting: The sync_systems configuration is hardcoded to true, preventing the use of RMT in offline mode as described in the documentation. (Reference: rmt.conf#L14)

Additionally, the entrypoint used in the Docker image referenced by the Helm chart (registry.suse.com/suse/rmt-server:2.15) appears to be the same limitation:

Questions:

  1. Are you aware of these limitations that prevent the use of RMT in Air Gapped mode?
  2. Are there any planned changes to address these issues in future releases?

Thank you for your attention to this matter.

Best regards,

Rafael Prata

@rafaprata rmt-helm is not build to handle air-gapped workloads. But we're tracking the new enhancement here helm-chart#11
