Description
As the title explained, I can deploy basic argocd instance, but after export, I can't deploy argocd instance from this backup data, the application controller startup was failing with volume mount error:
Warning FailedCreate 117s (x16 over 4m41s) statefulset-controller create Pod argocd-copy-application-controller-0 in StatefulSet argocd-copy-application-controller failed error: Pod "argocd-copy-application-controller-0" is invalid: [spec.containers[0].volumeMounts[0].name: Not found: "argocd-repo-server-tls", spec.containers[0].volumeMounts[1].name: Not found: "argocd-operator-redis-tls"]
Not clear if anything wrong here, please help to take a look.
My Steps:
-
Following manual install guide, I successfully deployed argocd-operator v0.13.0 with webhook enabled.
-
Created a basic argocd instance under 'argocd-origin' namespace, and it was available
# cat argocd-instance.yaml
apiVersion: argoproj.io/v1beta1
kind: ArgoCD
metadata:
name: basic-argocd
labels:
example: basic
spec:
server:
service:
type: LoadBalancer
redis:
image: dockerhub.packages.vcfd.broadcom.net/redis:7.0.15-alpine
# kubectl get argocd -n argocd-origin basic-argocd -o json | jq .status
{
"applicationController": "Running",
"applicationSetController": "Unknown",
"phase": "Available",
"redis": "Running",
"repo": "Running",
"server": "Running",
"sso": "Unknown"
}
- Successfully exported this argocd instance
# kubectl get argocdexport argocdexport-2 -n argocd-origin -o yaml
apiVersion: argoproj.io/v1alpha1
kind: ArgoCDExport
metadata:
annotations:

- Then I tried to create another argocd instance with this export under 'argocd-import' namespace, but failed
