Troubleshooting ISD Argo Installation Issues

Most common issues encountered during installation are related to the incorrect parameters given in the file *-values.yaml. As the user realizes there is a mistake committed in *-values.yaml, the easy way to correct it is by following the steps as stated below:
  1. 1.
    Update the *-values.yaml (or whichever file name you are using).
  2. 2.
    Wait for the helm install to error out, it is better not to break the process
  3. 3.
    Simply re-execute the “helm upgrade –install …” using the below command:
    helm upgrade --install <RELEASE NAME> . -n <NAMESPACE NAME> -f minimalargo.yaml

ISD Argo Installation Issues

The following issues can occur when installing ISD Argo.

Agent pods are not connecting:

The log of the agent pod should give the exact reason why it is not connecting.

Remote ArgoCD objects are not in OEA-UI:

The agent configuration in OEA is automatic. No further configuration is required. Once the agent connects to the controller and you have accessed the OEA-UI, tail the agent's logs again. It will show error messages if it cannot fetch the data from ArgoCD. Most common cases are:
  • Incorrect URL
  • Incorrect or expired token.

Local ArgoCD objects are not in OEA-UI:

In the case of ISD-Argo Full Installation, local ArgoCD objects are not appearing. This is the case if automatic configuration fails. Do a manual configuration, following the instructions in agent-service.yaml, but the argoCD URL goes into the carina configuration. Details can be found in the oea-autoconfiguration job and script.

Cleaning up/Delete the installation

Execute the following commands to delete the entire installation from Kubernetes.
Option 1:
Issue these commands, and replace -n option with the namespace
helm uninstall isdargo -n isd-argo
kubectl delete pvc -all -n isd-argo
kubectl delete jobs -all -n isd-argo
Option 2:
Issue these commands, and replace -n option with the namespace
kubectl -n isd-argo delete deploy --all
kubectl -n isd-argo delete sts --all
kubectl -n isd-argo delete svc --all
kubectl -n isd-argo delete ing --all
kubectl -n isd-argo delete cm --all
kubectl -n isd-argo delete jobs -all
kubectl -n isd-argo delete pvc -all
kubectl -n isd-argo delete secrets --all
kubectl delete ns isd-argo
Note: Please note that this option does not delete the CRDs. CRDs need to be deleted manually using the below commands.
kubectl get crds | grep -i argoproj
Kubectl delete crd <crd name> # For each of the crds
For deleting all CRDs related to argoproj, use the below command.
kubectl get crds | grep -i argoproj | cut -f 1 -d " " | xargs kubectl delete crd
