The maxConsecutiveFailures option allows control over deployment retry behavior. This optional field defines a threshold for consecutive deployment failures. After the specified number of consecutive failures, Sveltos will stop retrying the deployment.
Retries will only resume if the profile configuration is updated.
If maxConsecutiveFailures is not configured, Sveltos will retry indefinitely
This PR also solves two errors seen few times.
The first error as Helm stuck with: "cannot re-use a name that is still in use"
This condition should never occur. A previous check ensures that only one
ClusterProfile/Profile can manage a Helm Chart with a given name in a
specific namespace within a managed cluster. So after an install such error
is seen, Sveltos switches to an upgrade.
The second error as Helm stck with: "another operation (install/upgrade/rollback) is in progress"
As described above this condition should never happen. Sveltos tries to recover
by doing first an uninstall and then install back. While this is not ideal, there is no
other way to recover from this condition without manual intervention.
