snapshot-controller-crds pod in CrashLoopBackOff state after upgrade

Description

During an RKE2 upgrade, the newly installed snapshot-controller conflicts with the pre-existing snapshot-controller. As a result, the installation pod for snapshot-controller-crds enters a CrashLoopBackOff state.

Solution

To fix this issue, take the following steps:

  1. Update the /etc/rancher/rke2/config.yaml file with the following details on all server nodes:

    disable:
    - rke2-ingress-nginx
    - rke2-snapshot-controller
    - rke2-snapshot-controller-crd
    - rke2-snapshot-validation-webhook
    disable:
    - rke2-ingress-nginx
    - rke2-snapshot-controller
    - rke2-snapshot-controller-crd
    - rke2-snapshot-validation-webhook
    
  2. Restart the rke2-server using the following command:

    systemctl restart rke2-server.service
    systemctl restart rke2-server.service
    
  3. Run the following commands to clean up the existing snapshot controller pods:

    • to clean up the snapshot-controller-crd installation job:

      kubectl delete jobs -n kube-system helm-delete-rke2-snapshot-controller-crd --ignore-not-found
      kubectl delete jobs -n kube-system helm-delete-rke2-snapshot-controller-crd --ignore-not-found
      
    • to clean up the snapshot-controller installation job:

      kubectl delete jobs -n kube-system helm-install-rke2-snapshot-controller --ignore-not-found
      kubectl delete jobs -n kube-system helm-install-rke2-snapshot-controller --ignore-not-found
      
    • to clean up the snapshot-controller deployments:

      kubectl delete deploy -n kube-system snapshot-controller, rke2-snapshot-controller --ignore-not-found
      kubectl delete deploy -n kube-system snapshot-controller, rke2-snapshot-controller --ignore-not-found
