    Description

      Goal:

      • Mount etcd in a data volume (Data Disk) and evaluate performance running cluster workloads

      Motivation:

      The OPCT reported that Azure does not complain with the check rules when running the provider benchmark activity (OPCT-264). Exploring the details we can see the culprit is the etcd is not performing when under workloads, mainly when pressure the OS Disk - where etcd is mounted sharing with OS and many other control plane workloads.

      The resource isolation for sensitive workloads is recommended widely for providers[1], community[2], and Red Hat[3], considering OCP clusters in Azure (baseline IPI) has allocated a considered amount of compute and storage resources and still reporting issues, that isolate and analysis became more important.
