      Feature Overview (aka. Goal Summary)  

      Send a warning if LSO PVs are provision through device names

      We've seen a lot of case where users are provisioning volumes with device names. by-id can fail and failback to device name e.g with vsphere where ids are not populated if disk.EnableUUID = “TRUE” is not set to yes.

      Goals (aka. expected user outcomes)

      Be proactive to anticipate potential device name changes

      Requirements (aka. Acceptance Criteria):

      If LSO PVs are provisioned with device name a warning should be raised to inform the user that this is unsafe

       

       

      Deployment considerations List applicable specific needs (N/A = not applicable)
      Self-managed, managed, or both both
      Classic (standalone cluster) yes
      Hosted control planes yes
      Multi node, Compact (three node), or Single node (SNO), or all all
      Connected / Restricted Network both
      Architectures, e.g. x86_x64, ARM (aarch64), IBM Power (ppc64le), and IBM Z (s390x) all that apply to LSO
      Operator compatibility LSO
      Backport needed (list applicable versions) no
      UI need (e.g. OpenShift Console, dynamic plugin, OCM) no
      Other (please specify) N/A

      Out of Scope

      High-level list of items that are out of scope.  Initial completion during Refinement status.

      only applies to LSO and device names

      Background

      Provide any additional context is needed to frame the feature.  Initial completion during Refinement status.

      see RFE-8389 although it will apply to non vmware env too

      Customer Considerations

      Make sure the warning is clear enough and perhaps link to a KB for resolution

      Documentation Considerations

      TBC but can likely be addressed with a KB

      Interoperability Considerations

      Initially intended for vsphere env but ultimately benefit all env using LSO
