Resource propagation failure: ClusterResourcePlacementOverridden is False

This article discusses how to troubleshoot ClusterResourcePlacementOverridden issues when you propagate resources by using the ClusterResourcePlacement object API in Microsoft Azure Kubernetes Fleet Manager.

Symptoms

When you use the ClusterResourcePlacement API object in Azure Kubernetes Fleet Manager to propagate resources, the deployment fails. The clusterResourcePlacementOverridden status shows as False.

Cause

This issue might occur because the ClusterResourceOverride or ResourceOverride is created by using an invalid field path for the resource.

Case study

In the following example, an attempt is made to override the cluster role secret-reader that is propagated by the ClusterResourcePlacement to the selected clusters. However, the ClusterResourceOverride is created by using an invalid path for the resource.

ClusterRole

apiVersion: rbac.authorization.k8s.io/v1
kind: ClusterRole
metadata:
annotations:
kubectl.kubernetes.io/last-applied-configuration: |
{"apiVersion":"rbac.authorization.k8s.io/v1","kind":"ClusterRole","metadata":{"annotations":{},"name":"secret-reader"},"rules":[{"apiGroups":[""],"resources":["secrets"],"verbs":["get","watch","list"]}]}
creationTimestamp: "2024-05-14T15:36:48Z"
name: secret-reader
resourceVersion: "81334"
uid: 108e6312-3416-49be-aa3d-a665c5df58b4
rules:
- apiGroups:
  - ""
    resources:
  - secrets
    verbs:
  - get
  - watch
  - list

The ClusterRole secret-reader that is propagated to the member clusters by the ClusterResourcePlacement.

ClusterResourceOverride specifications

spec:
  clusterResourceSelectors:
  - group: rbac.authorization.k8s.io
    kind: ClusterRole
    name: secret-reader
    version: v1
  policy:
    overrideRules:
    - clusterSelector:
        clusterSelectorTerms:
        - labelSelector:
            matchLabels:
              env: canary
      jsonPatchOverrides:
      - op: add
        path: /metadata/labels/new-label
        value: new-value

The ClusterResourceOverride is created to override the ClusterRole secret-reader by adding a new label (new-label) that has the value new-value for the clusters that have the label env: canary.

    name: secret-reader
    version: v1

If the ClusterResourcePlacementOverridden condition is False, check the placementStatuses section to get the exact cause of the failure.

In this situation, the message indicates that the override failed because the path /metadata/labels/new-label and its corresponding value are missing. Based on the previous example of the cluster role secret-reader, you can see that the path /metadata/labels/ doesn't exist. This means that labels doesn't exist. Therefore, a new label can't be added.

Resolution

To successfully override the cluster role secret-reader, correct the path and value in ClusterResourceOverride, as shown in the following code:

jsonPatchOverrides:
  - op: add
    path: /metadata/labels
    value: 
      newlabel: new-value

This adds the new label newlabel that has the value new-value to the ClusterRole secret-reader.
