Experiencing inconsistencies with Service Mesh deployment between OpenShift versions 4.14 and 4.15. Specifically, when deploying a control plane on 4.15, particularly with Kiali, unpredictable outcomes arise. Noticed instances where Kiali fails to provision automatically in our demo system after deploying a Service Mesh control plane on 4.15. However, deploying on a 4.14 environment yields expected behavior. Seeking insights or resolutions to ensure consistent deployment across OpenShift versions.
