Description
Description
When running below command to launch chart to deploy the controller, k8s controller pod goes from "Error" to "CrashLoopBackOff " and never gets created.
helm install --set args.bigip_url=1.2.3.4 --set args.partition=kubernetes --set bigip_login_secret=bigip-login --set serviceaccount=k8s-bigip-ctlr f5-stable/f5-bigip-ctlr
Repro:
- Install k8s
- setup flannel and setup BIG-IP dummy node
- setup bigip serviceaccount as necessary
- setup secret for bigip login
- install helm client and tiller
- run helm install command as shown above using parameter "args.partition"
- workaround is to change the parameter name to "bigip_partition"
Expected Behavior:
Pod gets created
Actual Behavior:
error
Request: please update the documentation if bigip_partition should be used as the parameter name when using the --set option.
