Overview

The Prow CI job periodic-ci-openshift-release-main-cnv-nightly-4.19-e2e-aws-arm64-deploy-cnv is failing during CNV deployment on AWS ARM64 clusters. The HCO operator deployment is never created after the OLM subscription is set up, likely because the Brew IIB catalog image does not contain ARM64-compatible operator images.

Failure Analysis

Timeline

OCP cluster installed successfully via IPI on AWS ARM64 (~52 minutes)
CNV catalog source created with Brew IIB image: {{brew.registry.redhat.io/rh-osbs/iib:1107250}}
Catalog source went through {{TRANSIENT_FAILURE}} state for 13 retries (~65s) before becoming {{READY}}
OLM subscription {{kubevirt-hyperconverged}} created with channel {{candidate}}
Operator group {{openshift-cnv-group}} created
_FAILURE_: {{hco-operator}} deployment never appeared in {{openshift-cnv}} namespace
Retried 30 times x 10 seconds (5 minutes) - all returned {{NotFound}}
Final error: "Error during deployment: exit status: 1"

Key Error

Error from server (NotFound): deployments.apps "hco-operator" not found
> failed with exit code 1, waiting 10 seconds to retry...
(repeated 30 times)
Error during deployment: exit status: 1

Root Cause

The Brew IIB image (brew.registry.redhat.io/rh-osbs/iib:1107250) does not contain ARM64-compatible CNV operator images. Although the catalog source eventually becomes READY, OLM cannot install the HCO operator because the referenced operator images are not available for the ARM64 architecture.

The image source needs to be adjusted to use Konflux-built images that include ARM64/multi-arch support.

Action Required

• Adjust the CNV catalog image source for ARM64 jobs to use Konflux-built IIB/FBC images that include ARM64 operator images
• Verify that the CNV_CATALOG_IMAGE Prow job parameter points to a multi-arch compatible index image for ARM64 jobs
• Coordinate with the CNV build team to ensure Konflux pipeline produces ARM64-compatible catalog images

Probably a Duplicate Of

This issue is likely related to CNV-78505 which tracks similar Prow CI failures requiring image source adjustments.
