OCS-CI is searching for wrong resource names while running on an external mode environment

[tyichye19]

Setup:

• RedHat ODF installed on a cluster with IBM FlashSystem StorageSystem (as a result, the CEPH StorageSystem created automatically)
• Running OCS-CI with flag external_mode=true (as we running on IBM FlashSystem)

Problem: Multiple tests failed due to searching for resource names with an external prefix in their names, while on the cluster these objects exist but without the external prefix. See BZ ticket 2103664 opened for RedHat ODF developers team to verify it is expected behavior.

Example:

• Test case: tests/manage/pv_services/test_pvc_assign_pod_node.py::TestPvcAssignPodNode::test_rwx_pvc_assign_pod_node
• Test failure: ocs_ci.ocs.exceptions.CommandFailed: Error during execution of command: oc get storageclass ocs-external-storagecluster-ceph-rbd -o yaml. Error is Error from server (NotFound): storageclasses.storage.k8s.io "ocs-external-storagecluster-ceph-rbd" not found
• Object exist on cluster without external prefix: [root@ocp-installer ~]# oc get storageclass ocs-storagecluster-ceph-rbd ocs-storagecluster-ceph-rbd openshift-storage.rbd.csi.ceph.com Delete Immediate true 22h

Hi @tyichye19 is this still relevant following our meeting last week?

Hi @ebenahar, this issue can be closed as we concluded we should run the tests with external_mode=false, as we are installed in combine mode as you said. Thanks.
