TL;DR

Extends the cluster-validator binary with a control-plane role that runs
gateway, storage, overlay networking, and HA readiness checks — replacing
the previous GPU/SMB check set and the two-node node-to-node probe with a
DaemonSet-based full-mesh connectivity test.

Additional Details

Role switch (VALIDATOR_ROLE)

The existing validator always ran GPU/SMB checks, which produce false
failures on a control-plane cluster. A role switch in Run() branches the
check set on VALIDATOR_ROLE. An unrecognized value falls back to
compute-plane for backward compatibility. dynClient dynamic.Interface is
removed from Run() — no check requires it after the route check was
reworked to use the discovery API.

New checks when VALIDATOR_ROLE=control-plane

  • Default StorageClass (critical): verifies a default StorageClass exists for PVC provisioning.
  • Gateway API CRDs (critical): confirms gateway.networking.k8s.io/v1 is registered with gatewayclasses, gateways, httproutes, grpcroutes.
  • Envoy Gateway (non-critical): checks envoy-gateway-system has running pods. Non-critical because Envoy Gateway is installed by nvcf up; expected absent pre-install.
  • Route CR types (non-critical): uses the Kubernetes discovery API to verify httproute, tcproute, grpcroute, udproute are registered as API resources — equivalent to kubectl api-resources | grep route. No dependency on actual route object names or counts.
  • External LB (non-critical): passive scan for LoadBalancer services with an assigned external address.
  • Node-to-node overlay (critical): deploys a server DaemonSet on every schedulable node, then a checker pod on node[0] TCP-connects to each cross-node server pod IP. Validates full-mesh connectivity across all nodes, not just a single pair.

Node-to-node: DaemonSet approach

The previous implementation pinned a server pod to node A and a client pod
to node B, testing only one path and missing CNI issues on any other node.
The DaemonSet approach schedules a server pod on every schedulable node. The
checker pod connects to all cross-node server IPs in one shell script
(nc -z -w 5 19999 || exit 1 && ...). Exit code 0 means all paths are
reachable; non-zero means at least one node is unreachable.

ActiveDeadlineSeconds is forbidden on DaemonSet pod templates (Kubernetes
rejects it). The DaemonSet is cleaned up by a deferred delete using
context.Background() so cleanup runs even when the parent context has
expired. If the validator is SIGKILLed before the defer fires,
sweepOrphanN2NDaemonSets deletes any nvcf-n2n-server-* DaemonSets older
than 10 minutes at the start of the next run, mirroring the pattern used by
sweepOrphanTestNamespaces for netpol-validation namespaces.

HA readiness checks (CP Resilience SDD)

Two new checks from the Self-Hosted Control Plane Resilience SDD:

  • Tier-1 Deployment readiness (critical): lists all Deployments in
    control-plane namespaces (nvcf, sis, api-keys, ess, ncp, nats-system,
    vault-system, cassandra-system, envoy-gateway-system) and fails if any
    have readyReplicas < spec.replicas. No hardcoded Deployment names — any
    new service added to those namespaces is automatically covered.

  • Tier-2 StatefulSet quorum and placement (critical): lists all StatefulSets
    with spec.replicas == 3 in the same namespaces and fails if
    readyReplicas < 3 or any two pods share the same node. Covers NATS
    JetStream, OpenBao Raft, and Cassandra without hardcoding names.

Both pass trivially before nvcf up (namespaces absent) and on non-HA installs
(spec.replicas == 1; no spec.replicas == 3 StatefulSets found). They only
enforce when the Helmfile resilience profile is applied. Two new CheckKey*
constants (tier1_deployments, tier2_statefulsets) are added to summary.go
and metrics.go so the Prometheus gauges appear pre-zeroed on the first scrape.

For the Reviewer

  • internal/clustervalidator/validator.go: Run() loses dynClient param; ValidationState gains Tier1DeploymentsOK and Tier2StatefulSetsOK; printSummary adds Tier-1/Tier-2 rows.
  • internal/clustervalidator/checks.go: DaemonSet node-to-node probe with orphan sweep, checkTier1Deployments, checkTier2StatefulSets, sweepOrphanN2NDaemonSets. checkGatewayRoutes signature changes from dynClient dynamic.Interface to client kubernetes.Interface (discovery API).
  • internal/clustervalidator/summary.go: CheckKeyTier1Deployments, CheckKeyTier2StatefulSets added; AllCheckKeys grows from 16 to 18.
  • internal/metrics/metrics.go: clusterValidatorCheckKeys() updated with two new keys.
  • cmd/cluster-validator/main.go: dynClient removed; parseRole normalises VALIDATOR_ROLE.
  • internal/clustervalidator/checks_controlplane_test.go: TestCheckGatewayRoutes_NilClientSkips replaced with TestCheckGatewayRoutes_MissingCRDs; TestCheckNodeToNode_ServerPodCreateFailure replaced with TestCheckNodeToNode_DaemonSetCreateFailure.

For QA

Tested on k3d ncp-local (1 server + 5 agents, full NVCF stack deployed)
with VALIDATOR_ROLE=control-plane VALIDATOR_PREFLIGHT=true:

  • Default StorageClass (local-path): passed
  • Gateway API CRDs: passed
  • Envoy Gateway (4 pods running): passed
  • Route CR types (httproutes, tcproutes, grpcroutes, udproutes registered): passed
  • External LB (3 services with IPs): passed
  • Node-to-node DaemonSet: 6 server pods across all nodes, checker on agent-0 verified 5 cross-node paths: passed
  • Tier-1 Deployments (18 Deployments all ready): passed
  • Tier-2 StatefulSets (3 quorum StatefulSets, 3 Ready pods on distinct nodes): passed

Orphan sweep verified: manually created an orphan DaemonSet, waited 16
minutes, re-ran validator — sweep deleted it before creating a new DaemonSet
for the current run.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The cluster validator selects compute-plane or control-plane checks by role. Control-plane checks cover storage, Gateway infrastructure, load balancing, node connectivity, and workload readiness. Helm charts pass validator settings and permissions. Summaries and metrics reflect role-specific results, and pod polling bounds API calls by the wait deadline.

Changes

Role-aware cluster validation

Layer / File(s) Summary
Role selection and validation reporting
src/compute-plane-services/nvca/cmd/cluster-validator/*, src/compute-plane-services/nvca/internal/clustervalidator/{validator.go,summary.go}, src/compute-plane-services/nvca/internal/metrics/*
The CLI parses and passes the role and dynamic client to Run. The validator selects role-specific checks and reports failed, unknown, and not-applicable outcomes. Summary keys and metrics cover both check sets.
Storage, Gateway, and load-balancer checks
src/compute-plane-services/nvca/internal/clustervalidator/{checks.go,checks_controlplane_test.go,BUILD.bazel}
Control-plane checks inspect StorageClass defaults, Gateway API resources and routes, Envoy Gateway readiness, and load-balancer Services. Tests cover discovery, attribution, and incomplete observations.
Node connectivity and workload readiness
src/compute-plane-services/nvca/internal/clustervalidator/{checks.go,checks_controlplane_test.go}
The validator runs temporary node-to-node probes and checks Tier-1 Deployment readiness and Tier-2 StatefulSet quorum and placement. Tests cover probe and workload results.
Chart configuration and permissions
deploy/helm/nvca-operator/nvca-operator/{values.yaml,values.schema.json,README.md,templates/*}, src/compute-plane-services/nvca/deployments/nvca-operator/{values.yaml,values.schema.json,README.md,templates/*}, src/compute-plane-services/nvca/scripts/lint_helm.sh
Chart values define validator roles and check settings. Templates pass settings to CronJobs and init containers and grant Kubernetes access. Render tests check role normalization and signals.

Pod polling

Layer / File(s) Summary
Deadline-bounded pod polling
src/compute-plane-services/nvca/internal/clustervalidator/{enforcement.go,enforcement_test.go}
Pod API requests use deadline-bounded attempt contexts. The completion waiter retries transient errors and returns immediately for forbidden, unauthorized, and not-found errors.

Pin the Gateway API install URL to a version.

The recommendation points at releases/latest/download/standard-install.yaml. latest moves. An operator who follows this text months from now can install a Gateway API version that differs from the one the validator expects, which reproduces the failure the recommendation was meant to resolve.

Consider the Ready condition instead of the Running phase.

Status.Phase == corev1.PodRunning is true for a pod whose container is restarting or failing its readiness probe. The check reports "Installed and Running" for a gateway controller that serves no traffic. Counting pods whose PodReady condition is True gives an accurate signal. The row is non-critical, so this affects the operator's diagnosis rather than the verdict.

1116-1117: 🎯 Functional Correctness | 🔵 Trivial | ⚖️ Poor tradeoff

Node selection takes the first two schedulable nodes.

schedulable[0] and schedulable[1] follow API list order. On a multi-zone cluster those two nodes are frequently in the same zone, so the probe passes while cross-zone overlay traffic is broken. The check reports "Node-to-Node Communication: Verified" for a partially broken overlay.

Selecting two nodes with different topology.kubernetes.io/zone labels when such a pair exists would make the single probe far more informative. Record the chosen pair in the success message so the operator knows what was actually tested.

Remove the init function; it does nothing and its comment is incorrect.

The function builds a slice literal and discards it. Constructing runtime.Object values does not register anything with the fake client's object tracker. fake.NewSimpleClientset resolves types through the generated scheme in k8s.io/client-go/kubernetes/fake, which registers the built-in types in its own package initialization. The tests above already pass storagev1.StorageClass, corev1.Namespace, corev1.Pod, and corev1.Service values to NewSimpleClientset and they work for that reason.

The function also does not keep any import alive: storagev1, corev1, and runtime are each referenced by the tests directly.

The comment states a requirement that does not exist. A future maintainer may copy this pattern into new test files.

Consolidate the StorageClass cases into a table-driven test.

The four functions share one shape: seed StorageClasses, run checkStorageClass, assert the resulting bool and the recommendations. The repository guideline asks for table-driven tests when several scenarios differ only in inputs and expectations.

The table also makes the missing branch visible: no test covers the List error path. That path is the subject of the checks.go Line 824-830 comment, so a case there would pin the corrected behavior.

Assert that the deferred cleanup deletes the probe pods.

TestCheckNodeToNode_ServerPodCreateFailure covers the create-failure path but does not verify cleanup. Pod cleanup is the fragile part of checkNodeToNode: the server pod runs an infinite nc loop and only the deferred delete removes it. A test that inspects the recorded actions would pin that contract.

Use the fake clientset action log after a run where the server pod is created but never becomes ready.

💚 Proposed additional test
func TestCheckNodeToNode_DeletesProbePodsOnFailure(t *testing.T) {
	client := fake.NewSimpleClientset(
		makeNode("node-1", true, 0),
		makeNode("node-2", true, 0),
	)
	// Creates succeed; the server pod never becomes Ready, so the check
	// bails out after waitForPodReady and the deferred cleanup must run.
	state := &ValidationState{Log: testLog()}

Consider a parameter struct for Run.

Run now takes four string parameters, one bool, and two clients. configNamespace, configName, summaryNamespace, and role are all string, so a transposed argument compiles and fails only at runtime. A small RunOptions struct would make each call site self-documenting and prevent silent transposition when the next option is added.

- Around line 43-46: Update the Kubernetes client initialization around
internalutil.NewK8sClient so the dynamic client is declared as a

In `@src/compute-plane-services/nvca/internal/clustervalidator/checks.go`:
- Around line 824-830: Update the StorageClasses().List error handling at
src/compute-plane-services/nvca/internal/clustervalidator/checks.go#L824-L830 to
leave DefaultStorageClassOK nil and append a warning that the default
StorageClass status is unknown, omitting the critical row instead of marking it
failed. At
src/compute-plane-services/nvca/internal/clustervalidator/checks.go#L1092-L1098,
update the Nodes().List error handling to leave NodeToNodeOK nil and append a
warning that overlay connectivity is unverified, following the three-state
behavior used by checkControlPlaneHealth and rendered by printSummary.
- Around line 1230-1235: Run gofmt on the composite literal containing the
client container in the clustervalidator checks code, ensuring the contiguous
Name, Image, Command, and Resources fields align to the longest key. Do not
change their values or behavior.
- Around line 1191-1239: Update buildNodeToNodeServerPod and
buildNodeToNodeClientPod so both probe containers use a restricted-compliant
security context: run as non-root, disallow privilege escalation, drop all
capabilities, and use RuntimeDefault seccomp while retaining the non-privileged
port. Also change the managed-by label from nvcf-cli to the cluster-validator
identity used for these pods, consistently in both builders.
- Around line 1119-1129: Update the node-to-node probe setup around the
serverName/clientName generation and pod builders to replace the wrapping
UnixNano suffix with a collision-resistant suffix using
k8s.io/apimachinery/pkg/util/rand, and add the matching Bazel dependency. Set
ActiveDeadlineSeconds on both probe pods so the API server terminates them if
deferred cleanup never runs; preserve the existing cleanup behavior and pod
naming structure.

state: initialize ValidationState with RoleControlPlane, run the relevant
control-plane check using the existing test logger and fake client, then assert
DefaultStorageClassOK is non-nil and GPUAvailable remains false. Alternatively,
add the proposed TestRun_ControlPlaneRoleRunsControlPlaneChecks alongside the
existing test and remove the unused err assignment.

In `@src/compute-plane-services/nvca/internal/clustervalidator/validator.go`:
- Around line 177-192: The control-plane validation flow currently runs the
critical checkNodeToNode probe during preflight, where pod creation may be
unauthorized. Update the Run flow and control-plane branch to skip
checkNodeToNode when emitMetrics is false, while preserving it for normal
in-cluster runs; keep the existing checkNodeToNode behavior unchanged otherwise.
- Around line 80-91: The buildSummary path must propagate all six control-plane
results—DefaultStorageClassOK, GatewayAPICRDsOK, EnvoyGatewayOK,
GatewayRoutesOK, ExternalLBOK, and NodeToNodeOK—into ValidatorSummary.Checks.
Add stable CheckKey constants, include them in AllCheckKeys and
clusterValidatorCheckKeys(), and map each pointer only when non-nil; update the
summary tests to cover these entries.

…cks, route CR check

- Replace two-node pinning in checkNodeToNode with a DaemonSet approach:
  a server pod is scheduled on every schedulable node and a checker pod
  on node[0] verifies reachability to all cross-node server IPs. This
  catches per-node CNI issues that the two-node probe missed.

- Remove the emitMetrics gate on checkNodeToNode. The CLI RBAC bootstrap
  (Req 3) grants the validator SA DaemonSet create/delete before Job
  submission so no separate permission gate is needed.

- Replace checkGatewayRoutes dynamic-client list with a discovery API
  check: verifies httproute, tcproute, grpcroute, udproute CR types are
  registered across all gateway.networking.k8s.io versions. No dependency
  on actual route object names or counts.

- Remove dynClient dynamic.Interface parameter from Run() and main.go
  since no check requires it after the routes check was reworked.

- Add checkTier1Deployments: lists all Deployments in control-plane
  namespaces and fails if any have readyReplicas < spec.replicas.

- Add checkTier2StatefulSets: lists StatefulSets with spec.replicas==3
  and fails if readyReplicas < 3 or any two pods share a node. Covers
  NATS, OpenBao, Cassandra without hardcoding names.

- Add CheckKeyTier1Deployments and CheckKeyTier2StatefulSets to
  summary.go and metrics.go so the gauges appear pre-zeroed on the
  first Prometheus scrape.

Closes #583
Kubernetes rejects DaemonSets with activeDeadlineSeconds in the pod
template spec — it is only valid on Pods and Jobs. Cleanup is handled
by the deferred DaemonSet delete in checkNodeToNode.
Add sweepOrphanN2NDaemonSets to delete nvcf-n2n-server-* DaemonSets
older than 10 minutes at the start of every validator run. DaemonSets
do not support activeDeadlineSeconds so a SIGKILL before defer fires
leaves server pods running on every node indefinitely. The 10-minute TTL
avoids racing with concurrent runs (checker timeout is 90s).

Use the DaemonSet's schedulable-node count as the readiness target.

schedulable includes nodes with untolerated NoSchedule taints, but the DaemonSet has no tolerations. waitForDaemonSetPods therefore waits for pods that cannot be scheduled and sets NodeToNodeOK=false. Use DaemonSet.Status.DesiredNumberScheduled, select checkerNode from the Running server pods, and add a regression test for a tainted node.

160-160: 📐 Maintainability & Code Quality | 🔵 Trivial | 💤 Low value

Remove one of the two orphan DaemonSet sweeps.

checkNodeToNode already calls sweepOrphanN2NDaemonSets (checks.go Line 1146). This call repeats the same list request for every run, including compute-plane runs that never create the probe DaemonSet. Keep the sweep in checkNodeToNode only, or keep it here only and remove it from checkNodeToNode. Also note that this call site duplicates the 10-minute TTL literal; move it to a named constant next to orphanNamespaceTTL.

Proposed fix
 	sweepOrphanTestNamespaces(ctx, log, client, orphanNamespaceTTL)
-	sweepOrphanN2NDaemonSets(ctx, log, client, 10*time.Minute)

Log the DaemonSet list error in the sweep.

The condition err != nil || len(dsList.Items) == 0 discards the list error. An RBAC gap or an API failure then produces no signal, and orphan probe DaemonSets accumulate silently. Log a warning for the error case before returning.

As per coding guidelines: "all errors must be handled explicitly".

1257-1282: 🩺 Stability & Availability | 🔵 Trivial | ⚡ Quick win

Gate on container readiness and shorten the signature line.

Two points:

  1. The loop accepts a pod when Status.Phase == PodRunning and PodIP != "". The nc listener may not accept connections at that moment, so the checker pod can fail against a starting server. Require ContainerStatuses[i].Ready as well.
  2. Line 1257 exceeds the 120-character limit.

As per coding guidelines: "keep lines within 120 characters".

Proposed fix
-func waitForDaemonSetPods(ctx context.Context, client kubernetes.Interface, ns, selector string, wantCount int, timeout time.Duration) ([]corev1.Pod, error) {
+func waitForDaemonSetPods(
+	ctx context.Context,
+	client kubernetes.Interface,
+	ns, selector string,
+	wantCount int,
+	timeout time.Duration,
+) ([]corev1.Pod, error) {
 	deadline := time.Now().Add(timeout)
 	for {
 		pods, err := client.CoreV1().Pods(ns).List(ctx, metav1.ListOptions{LabelSelector: selector})
 		if err != nil {
 			return nil, err
 		}
 		var running []corev1.Pod
 		for i := range pods.Items {
-			if pods.Items[i].Status.Phase == corev1.PodRunning && pods.Items[i].Status.PodIP != "" {

+				pods.Items[i].Status.PodIP != "" &&
+				podContainersReady(&pods.Items[i]) {
 				running = append(running, pods.Items[i])
 			}
 		}

Add the helper:

func podContainersReady(p *corev1.Pod) bool {
	for i := range p.Status.ContainerStatuses {
		if !p.Status.ContainerStatuses[i].Ready {
			return false
		}
	}
	return len(p.Status.ContainerStatuses) > 0

@rohithb-hub rohithb-hub changed the title feat(nvca): add control-plane cluster validator role, gateway and storage checks feat(nvca): extend control-plane validator with HA checks, DaemonSet n2n, and route CR type check Aug 18, 2026
- BUILD.bazel: add k8s.io/api/apps/v1 dep (CI failure), remove
  k8s.io/client-go/dynamic and apimachinery/pkg/runtime/schema
  (no longer used after removing dynClient and reworking route check)

- checkNodeToNode: use DaemonSet.Status.DesiredNumberScheduled as the
  waitForDaemonSetPods target instead of len(schedulable). The DaemonSet
  scheduler respects taints and tolerations, so nodes with NoSchedule
  taints that the DaemonSet has no toleration for are excluded from
  DesiredNumberScheduled. Waiting on len(schedulable) would block on
  pods that can never be scheduled. Fall back to len(schedulable) when
  the status field is not populated immediately after creation.

- checkNodeToNode: select checkerNode from a Running server pod instead
  of schedulable[0], so the checker is guaranteed to be on a node where
  the DaemonSet actually scheduled.

- Remove duplicate sweepOrphanN2NDaemonSets call from Run() — the sweep
  is already called inside checkNodeToNode which is the only place that
  creates n2n DaemonSets. Add orphanN2NDaemonSetTTL named constant.

- sweepOrphanN2NDaemonSets: log a warning when the DaemonSet list call
  fails instead of silently discarding the error.
Em dashes: replace U+2014 with ASCII punctuation in all new strings,
comments, and godoc added in this branch (checks.go, validator.go).

Tier-1 rolling update false positive: skip Deployments where a rolling
update is in progress (ObservedGeneration < Generation or UpdatedReplicas
< spec.replicas) to avoid flagging transient readiness drops during
normal rollouts as under-replication failures. Fix recommendation text
to not reference a specific replica count.

Nil comments: correct Tier1DeploymentsOK and Tier2StatefulSetsOK godoc
to state they are nil only when the check did not run or a list call
failed; pre-install (no resources found) yields true, not nil.

Tainted node regression test: add TestCheckNodeToNode_TaintedNodeExcluded
covering a 3-node cluster with one NoSchedule taint. The test captures
the DaemonSet's label set (including the random instance suffix) so the
pod-list reactor returns pods that survive FakePods.List label filtering.
The test proves waitForDaemonSetPods converges on DesiredNumberScheduled=2
rather than hanging on len(schedulable)=3.

Regression: this partial return reports the critical overlay check as Verified when a Ready node's pod networking is broken. At f861d3c the same input failed.

Take 3 Ready nodes where node-3's CNI cannot create sandboxes (VPC-CNI IP exhaustion, a missing flannel subnet.env). Its probe pod stays ContainerCreating with no IP, while DesiredNumberScheduled is 3. At the deadline, distinctNodeCount(running) >= minNodes returns the pods on node-1 and node-2, so the checker only probes node-2. The result is "overlay verified", NodeToNodeOK=true, node_to_node=1 and VerdictReady=true, plus a non-blocking "covered 2 of 3" warning. The floor is absolute, so 2 of 10 nodes also passes.

The rationale in the comment at L1657-1662 is my mistake from last round. I said DesiredNumberScheduled counts NotReady and cordoned nodes, and that was wrong. NotReady nodes carry node.kubernetes.io/not-ready:NoSchedule, and DaemonSet pods auto-tolerate only the NoExecute variant (checked in the k8s v1.35.4 source). So NotReady nodes were never in the desired count, and the problem this change works around did not exist. Please revert to requiring wantCount pods and drop that comment. TestCheckNodeToNode_TaintedNodeExcluded no longer guards anything as long as this return exists.

Reverted to requiring every scheduled pod, and dropped the comment (97fc59c). At the timeout, pods that were never created, unschedulable, failing to pull, or failing to start are UNKNOWN. A pod left in ContainerCreating with no IP still fails, and wins when both appear (bb19cef). TestWaitForDaemonSetPods_RequiresEveryScheduledPod covers your node-3 case.

Making a critical UNKNOWN block the verdict (which I suggested last round) turns every "tolerate the rollout" branch into NVCF-Not-Ready and exit 1, which contradicts those functions' own docs.

Take NATS mid-RollingUpdate at 2/3 with everything else green. checks.go:2143 counts it as rollingUnderReplicated and leaves the pointer nil, so the verdict is NVCF-Not-Ready, VerdictReady=false, and tier2_statefulsets is absent. A 4-replica Deployment at 3/4 mid-rollout does the same (1949, 2025). checks.go:2054 still says "warned about, not failed", and the row reads "Status Unknown (check did not run)" for a check that did run. With the CronJob's backoffLimit: 2, the node-to-node fan-out repeats up to 3 times. With role=control-plane the operator init container CrashLoops during any control-plane upgrade (see deployment.yaml:103).

The gate is right. The problem is that "tolerated rollout" and "could not observe" now share nil. The rollout branches should set OK=true and append a warning. nil should be reserved for "did not observe". The per-check series is also still deleted rather than set to 0.

The rollout branches in Tier-1 and Tier-2 now set OK=true and append a warning, so nil is reserved for 'did not observe' (97fc59c). Unobserved checks still go absent rather than 0; that is the documented contract in METRICS.md, and the verdict now carries the failure.

Wiring the single clusterValidator.role into the operator init container makes compute-plane operator startup depend on control-plane HA health. This chart is only ever installed on compute-plane clusters.

With enabled=true and role=control-plane:

  • Single-cluster topology: validator.go:193-210 runs one check set or the other, so gpu_resources no longer gates operator start. A node failure that leaves an OpenBao/NATS/Cassandra pod stuck Terminating produces Tier-2 "readyReplicas=2 (need 3)", log.Fatal exits 1, and the operator sits in Init:CrashLoopBackOff until someone force-deletes the pod. Every operator start also runs the active node-to-node probe, which can wait 30s+120s+90s.
  • Split topology: only deploy/stacks/nvcf-compute-plane installs this chart, so the control-plane set runs on a compute-only cluster, the Gateway API CRDs check fails critically, and the operator never starts.

The comment above describes a real problem: the init container overwrites the CronJob's summary. But gating the operator on control-plane checks is the wrong fix. Pin the init container to compute-plane, or have it skip the summary write when the CronJob owns it. The same applies to src/compute-plane-services/nvca/deployments/nvca-operator/templates/deployment.yaml.

The init container is pinned to VALIDATOR_ROLE=compute-plane in both chart copies. Under role=control-plane it also runs with VALIDATOR_PREFLIGHT=true, so it no longer overwrites the CronJob's summary (97fc59c).

A reconciled DesiredNumberScheduled of 0 is treated as "never reported". As a result, a cluster where every node carries a taint the probe does not tolerate gets a blocking critical UNKNOWN, while a cluster with exactly one eligible node gets a non-blocking N/A.

Example: all nodes tainted dedicated=system-workload (the pattern in stacks base.yaml:116-132) or nvidia.com/gpu, while the probe tolerates only control-plane/master. The DaemonSet reports observedGeneration=1, desired=0, so DesiredNumberScheduled > 0 never matches, and after 30s the verdict is NVCF-Not-Ready. The operator init container runs with .Values.tolerations, so it lands on such a cluster and CrashLoops permanently. f861d3c had the same 30s timeout, but that did not block the verdict.

ObservedGeneration >= Generation alone is enough to know the target was reported. Treat a reconciled 0 the same as 1 (N/A with a warning), not as unobserved.

A reconciled DesiredNumberScheduled is now returned as soon as ObservedGeneration catches up, including 0, so there is no 30s wait (97fc59c). Following the rule in the next thread, N/A needs fewer than two schedulable nodes, so a reconciled 0 or 1 on a multi-node cluster is UNKNOWN with a warning naming the untolerated taint. The init container no longer runs this check, so it cannot CrashLoop on it.

wantPods < 2 is reported as Not Applicable even on multi-node clusters. The critical overlay row then stops blocking, adds no warning, and loses its series, exactly when the probe could not span nodes.

Example: 3 schedulable nodes, 2 of them tainted nvidia.com/gpu=present:NoSchedule (GKE applies this automatically), so desired=1. The run shows N/A, empty Warnings, the green "meets all requirements" banner, and no node_to_node series (reproduced). At f861d3c this was a skip with a warning. METRICS.md:1425 says the warnings list explains the absence, but here it is empty, and the absent() alert guard that METRICS.md prescribes fires forever on these Ready clusters.

N/A should require len(schedulable nodes) < 2, not "the probe fit on one node". It also needs a state.Warnings entry so the summary can tell it apart from UNKNOWN.

The new 403-only branches mislabel denials.

  • A ResourceQuota "exceeded quota" or a Gatekeeper denial (both 403) becomes "RBAC denied" UNKNOWN.
  • A Kyverno image-allowlist denial of busybox (400), a ValidatingAdmissionPolicy denial (422), or a timed-out fail-closed webhook (500/503) is reported as "Failed to create server DaemonSet", node_to_node=0, i.e. a broken overlay.

The namespace create (1466) turns all of these into UNKNOWN, so the two call sites disagree. waitForPodDone (1589, via enforcement.go:572) still FAILs on its first Get error, and a Forbidden from waitForDaemonSetPods (1536) FAILs despite the docstring at 1405-1408. The checker-pod 403 guard has no test.

Suggest classifying by "the probe could not be admitted" (any 4xx from create) vs "the probe ran and failed". Only the second is evidence about the overlay.

Classified by outcome, not status code. Any rejection of the probe namespace, DaemonSet or checker pod is UNKNOWN. After the pod wait times out, pods that were never created, unschedulable, failing to pull, or failing to start are UNKNOWN. A pod with no IP in ContainerCreating still fails. waitForPodDone now retries short-lived errors, and a Forbidden from the pod wait is UNKNOWN. Tests cover each status code, the checker-pod 403, and the mixed case (bb19cef).

The overlay probe still defaults to an unqualified busybox:1.36 from docker.io, with no imagePullSecrets, in a fresh namespace. This delta makes that path reachable from the chart CronJob and the operator init container.

With an egress allowlist or a Docker Hub rate limit and enforcement.testImage unset, every probe pod goes to ImagePullBackOff. The check reports "got 0 on 0 node(s)", NodeToNodeOK=false, with no recommendation, and exits 1. With role=control-plane the operator then CrashLoops, about 2.5 minutes per attempt. The only override is documented as an enforcement-test setting, so an operator debugging the overlay row won't find it. Consider a dedicated nodeToNode.image value, defaulting to the same global.image.registry mirror the rest of the stack uses.

Added clusterValidator.nodeToNodeProbeImage (NVCF_N2N_PROBE_IMAGE), which takes precedence over enforcement.testImage. An image pull failure is now UNKNOWN with a recommendation naming the setting. The default stays busybox:1.36, since this chart has no global registry value to build on (bb19cef).

The pending-LoadBalancer gate counts every LoadBalancer Service in the Envoy namespace, including other teams' Gateway proxies. In its default deployment mode, Envoy Gateway puts every Gateway's proxy Service in envoy-gateway-system.

So if the NVCF Service has an IP and team-b's Service is <pending>, you get ExternalLBOK=false, external_lb=0, and advice to check the load balancer controller and its address pool on a healthy NVCF gateway (reproduced). f861d3c passed this cluster. Filter on the gateway.envoyproxy.io/owning-gateway-name label for the NVCF Gateways. The remediation text also still hardcodes -n envoy-gateway-system after the namespace became configurable.

By default the validator now discovers the NVCF Gateways from the parentRefs of the NVCF routes, matched on the helm.sh/chart label so nameOverride does not hide them. It checks only those Gateways' proxy Services, in both the controller namespace and each Gateway's namespace. A pending or missing proxy Service fails; a Gateway exposed as NodePort or ClusterIP does not. clusterValidator.gatewayNames remains as an override that replaces discovery. With no NVCF routes, before install, the lenient rule applies. A discovery error is reported, and an address on some Service is then UNKNOWN rather than a pass. The remediation text uses the configured namespace (bb19cef, 0f7aa33).

An Envoy controller with no Ready pods sets EnvoyGatewayOK=false without adding a warning. The run then prints the green NVCF-Ready box and "meets all requirements" under a failing Envoy row.

Example: the controller is CrashLooping while the proxies still serve (the LB has addresses) and everything else is green. printSummary picks the banner from len(state.Warnings)==0, so the output is the green box plus "Your cluster meets all requirements for NVCF workloads" (reproduced). The API-error branches above were converted correctly. This one needs the same state.Warnings append.

This "critical failure blocks readiness" subtest no longer proves what its name says. It leaves three critical pointers nil, and after 9decc75 those block the verdict on their own.

Mutating addCP(state.DefaultStorageClassOK, …, false) to demote StorageClass to non-critical leaves the whole package green (198/198). At f861d3c the same mutation fails this subtest. The sibling fixture at 174-178 was updated; this one needs the remaining pointers set to &ok too.

…s unobserved

Making a critical UNKNOWN block the verdict was right, but "tolerated rollout"
and "could not observe" were both represented by a nil pointer. Every rolling
upgrade therefore became NVCF-Not-Ready with a non-zero exit, and with the
CronJob's backoffLimit the node-to-node fan-out repeated on each attempt. The
rollout branches now set the result with a warning; nil means only "did not
observe". Tier-1 and Tier-2 are made to agree with each other on the case where
nothing else was assessed.

Related corrections in the same area:

- The overlay wait accepted a partial pod set, so a Ready node whose CNI could
  not give the probe an IP was skipped and the run still reported Verified.
  Every scheduled pod is required again. The rationale for the partial return
  was withdrawn by the reviewer: NotReady nodes carry the NoSchedule taint,
  which DaemonSet pods do not auto-tolerate, so they were never in the desired
  count and the problem it worked around did not exist.
- A reconciled DesiredNumberScheduled of 0 is an answer, not a missing one, so
  a fully tainted cluster no longer produces a blocking UNKNOWN.
- "Not applicable" now keys off the schedulable node count. A multi-node cluster
  where the probe reached fewer than two nodes is unobserved, and says so.
- A Deployment scaled to zero fails rather than warning: it is the
  replicaCount:0 values error, and the same Deployment at 2/3 already fails.
- Tier-2 switches on spec.updateStrategy.type. OnDelete never advances
  CurrentRevision, so treating a mismatch there as a rollout both hid a
  CrashLooping peer at 2/3 and warned on every run at 3/3.
- A known quorum component below three replicas fails instead of being skipped
  as an unrecognised shape.
- The OpenBao and Envoy namespace overrides replace the default rather than
  adding to it, so a foreign workload in the vacated namespace is not assessed
  as ours.
- An Envoy controller with no Ready pods adds a warning, since printSummary
  picks the banner from the warning count and otherwise printed the green box
  above its own failing row.

The operator init container is pinned to the compute-plane check set and no
longer follows clusterValidator.role. This chart is only installed on
compute-plane clusters and a failed validation is fatal there, so the
control-plane set would gate operator startup on control-plane HA. It drops its
summary write when the CronJob owns the control-plane role, which is what the
role wiring was added to fix.
…eck to NVCF Gateways

The node-to-node check split one cause across two verdicts. A 403 on the
probe DaemonSet was UNKNOWN, but a 400, 422, 500 or 503 from an admission
policy or webhook failed the overlay. Any rejection of the probe namespace,
DaemonSet or checker pod now leaves the row unknown. After the pod wait
times out, probe pods that could not be created, scheduled, pulled or
started are also unknown. A pod the node could not network, such as one
stuck in ContainerCreating with no IP, still fails the check.
waitForPodDone retries transient Get errors instead of failing on the
first one.

The probe image gets a dedicated override, NVCF_N2N_PROBE_IMAGE, exposed
as clusterValidator.nodeToNodeProbeImage. It takes precedence over
enforcement.testImage. An image pull failure now adds a recommendation
that names this setting.

The external LoadBalancer check can be limited to named NVCF Gateways
through NVCF_GATEWAY_NAMES (clusterValidator.gatewayNames), matched on
Envoy Gateway's owning-gateway labels. Another team's pending proxy
Service no longer fails a healthy NVCF gateway. When no names are set, a
pending Service fails the check only if no Service has an address.
Otherwise it produces a warning that points at the setting. The Envoy
install hint now names the configured namespace.

…alancer check

Gateway names differ per install, so a hand-maintained list drifts. The
nvcf-gateway-routes chart already records which Gateways carry NVCF
traffic: every route it renders names its Gateway in parentRefs. The
LoadBalancer check now follows those references.

- Routes are matched on the helm.sh/chart label prefix, which nameOverride
  does not change. parentRefs get the Gateway API defaults: group, kind
  Gateway, and the route's own namespace.
- Only served route kinds are listed, each at its own served version.
  A list error on a served kind is reported, not treated as no routes.
- Proxy Services are searched in the Envoy controller namespace and in
  every discovered Gateway namespace, covering both Envoy deployment modes.
- For NVCF Gateways, a pending LoadBalancer or a missing proxy Service
  fails. A Gateway exposed as NodePort or ClusterIP is not failed.
- clusterValidator.gatewayNames becomes an override that replaces
  discovery.
- With no NVCF routes yet, the lenient pre-install rule still applies.
  If discovery fails, an address on some Service is reported as unknown
  rather than a pass.

The validator ClusterRole gains read-only get and list on httproutes,
grpcroutes, tcproutes and udproutes. Run takes a dynamic client for the
route lists.

…BAC denials

A paused Deployment holds UpdatedReplicas below spec.replicas
indefinitely and never reports ProgressDeadlineExceeded. It was
therefore tolerated as a rollout at any readiness, so one paused at
0/3 passed Tier-1 on every run. Paused Deployments are now assessed
at their current readiness.

Tier-1 and Tier-2 counted a failed list (a 429 or 500) together with
403s, and the warning called both an RBAC denial. The warning now says
the list was denied or failed and gives the namespace count. Also drop
a Tier-2 comment that still said the ClusterRole lacks statefulsets.

src/compute-plane-services/nvca/internal/clustervalidator/checks.go:2502
🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟠 Major | ⚡ Quick win

Assess NVCF proxies in merged-gateways mode.

isEnvoyProxy accepts a Deployment labeled only with owningGatewayClassLabel, but gateways.entryFor requires owningGatewayNameLabel. The condition therefore skips that proxy even when it serves an NVCF Gateway. If its pods are unavailable, Tier-1 can report “All Ready” without assessing the proxy. Match merged-mode proxies to the relevant GatewayClass, or report their readiness separately.

🩺 Stability & Availability | 🟠 Major | ⚡ Quick win

Pass clusterValidator.role to the init validator in both chart templates.

clusterValidator.role: control-plane is supported, but this init container always receives VALIDATOR_ROLE=compute-plane. The init validator can therefore run compute-plane checks and fail before the operator starts. Apply the same change in deploy/helm/nvca-operator/nvca-operator/templates/deployment.yaml.
