Description
Describe the bug
In case a Lease does not currently have a Leader who would renew the lease and it is already expired, the new Leader can't
immediately acquire it.
During leader election observedTime is set to observedTime = DateTimeOffset.Now which makes the calculation whether the Lease is expired incorrect. Eventually it will become the leader, but for config.LeaseDuration the Lease may not have a leader.
I created the following change on my fork, which seems to solve the issue:
- observedTime should be the RenewTime of the observedRecord
- Checking whether a Lease is expired should be calculated based on the observedRecord RenewTime and it's config. Not ours.
Kubernetes C# SDK Client Version
e.g. 9.0.1
Server Kubernetes Version
e.g. 1.22.3
Dotnet Runtime Version
e.g. net6
To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:
- Create a LeaderElector and dispose it. Wait for the Lease to be expired. Create another one for the same Lease. It will take
config.LeaseDurationtime to acquire the Lease even though it is expired.
Expected behavior
Considering the scenario explained in the To Reproduce part, I would expect the second Leader to immediately get the Lease.
