Feature Overview (Goal Summary)

Provide built-in, secure, and fully supported integration of the Secondary Scheduler with OpenShift cluster monitoring, enabling Prometheus to scrape scheduler metrics without manual Service/ServiceMonitor creation or insecure TLS configurations.

Currently:

• Primary scheduler metrics are automatically exposed and integrated into cluster monitoring.

• Secondary scheduler requires manual Service and ServiceMonitor creation.

• Secure scraping requires insecureSkipVerify: true due to self-signed localhost CA.

• This results in unsupported, non-production-grade monitoring configuration.

This feature will:

• Automatically expose /metrics and /metrics/resources

• Provide a properly signed serving certificate

• Integrate with cluster-monitoring via supported patterns

• Eliminate the need for insecureSkipVerify

🔹 Goals (Expected User Outcomes)

1️⃣ First-Class Observability

Users can monitor Secondary Scheduler just like the default scheduler.

Outcome:
Unified observability experience across schedulers.
