OCPSTRAT-1103 - [etcd] recovery from expired etcd server and peer certs
-
-
-
ETCD Sprint 252
Given the scope creep of the work required to enable an offline cert rotation (or an automated restore), we are going to rely on online cert rotation to ensure that etcd certs don't expire during a cluster shutdown/hibernation.
Slack thread for background:
https://redhat-internal.slack.com/archives/C851TKLLQ/p1712533437483709?thread_ts=1712526244.614259&cid=C851TKLLQ
The estimated maximum shutdown period is 9 months. The refresh rate for the etcd certs can be increased so that there are always e.g 10 months left on the cert validity in the worst case i.e we shutdown right before the controller does its rotation.
