1.30.1    

Found seven times in same cluster.

Bug was found using Konflux Perf & Scale's oomkill-and-crashloopbackoff-detector tool. For more information see https://github.com/redhat-appstudio/perfscale/tree/main/tools/oomkill-and-crashloopbackoff-detector.

For more information, see the linked Konflux bug.

The tool detected 7 occasions of this bug, but could properly collect logs for only two of those. I've attached the tgz from the original bug where log files can be found
