Statefulset update / recreate

[applike-ss]

Due to config adjustments, the operator tries to patch the sts in a way that would be incompatible.

I am getting this error then:

StatefulSet.apps "drangonfly-app" is invalid: spec: Forbidden: updates to statefulset spec for fields other than 'replicas', 'ordinals', 'template', 'updateStrategy', 'persistentVolumeClaimRetentionPolicy' and 'minReadySeconds' are forbidden

It would be great if drangonfly-operator could delete the sts with cascade=orphan and then re-create it with the current config to ensure the desired state.

I was thinking that when i now remove this sts manually, the operator would re-create it to ensure the desired state. This was also not the case and i would like the operator to ensure the desired state of having the sts with the desired configuration re-created as well.

Could you share the config that led to the following behaviour? Updating dragonfly CRD caused the issue? I am interested to know the root cause.

Recreating the statefulset wouldn't solve the underlying issue (i.e. why is the operator trying to update statefulset like that).

Yep, its indeed nice to have.

I've the same problem. I deploy the CRD with ArgoCD, but the Operator does not update anything, no trigger for rollout replace. And after that, I can see un the logs :

It was indeed updating the CR. I was updating the spec.snapshot.persistentVolumeClaimSpec. This leads to an update in the sts' spec.persistentVolumeClaim path, which is usually not allowed. So my suggestion is to allow this change by removing the sts with cascade=false option and re-create it.

Recreating the statefulset wouldn't solve the underlying issue (i.e. why is the operator trying to update statefulset like that).

That is true, updating parts of the CR that are not supposed to be updated from sts side is.

Here's a demo CR:

apiVersion: dragonflydb.io/v1alpha1
kind: Dragonfly
metadata:
  name: dragonfly-app
spec:
  image: ghcr.io/dragonflydb/dragonfly-weekly:e8650ed2b4ebd550c966751dd33ebb1ac4f82b1f-ubuntu
  args:
    - '--cache_mode'
    - '--primary_port_http_enabled=true'
    - '--cluster_mode=emulated'
  snapshot:
    cron: '*/5 * * * *'
    persistentVolumeClaimSpec:
      resources:
        requests:
          storage: 1Gi
      accessModes:
        - ReadWriteOnce
  resources:
    limits:
      cpu: 100m
      memory: 320Mi
    requests:
      cpu: 100m
      memory: 320Mi
  replicas: 3

Updating this to the following will show the issue:
