## What this PR does Upgrades Flux v2.7.3 → v2.8.0 across both the vendored tenant chart and the embedded management-cluster manifests, and folds in the chart fixes that become hard errors under the new strict helm-controller v1.5. Flux v2.8's helm-controller v1.5.0 ships: - **Server-Side Apply with `--force-conflicts`** — strict CRD schema enforcement; misplaced fields (silently dropped on v2.7) now fail the apply. - **kstatus-based health checking** by default — parent HR waits for every applied resource (including child HRs) to be Ready before flipping its own Ready, surfacing latent ordering deadlocks. - **Helm v4 embedded** — `upgrade.force: true` is deprecated and now conflicts with SSA. - **`HelmRelease.spec.healthCheckExprs`** — prerequisite for proper readiness gating (used in PR #2601 split). Folds in PR #2612 (kubevirt-instancetypes null TPM fix) since the same Flux upgrade triggers it. ## Commits **Flux upgrade itself:** - `feat(fluxcd)`: bump `flux-operator` / `flux-instance` vendored charts to v0.48.0; web UI opt-in. - `feat(flux)`: regenerate embedded management-cluster manifests via `make update` in `packages/core/flux-aio` (timoni bundle build). **Chart fixes for strict SSA — fields the chart sent that v2.7 silently dropped, v2.8 rejects:** - `fix(kubevirt-instancetypes)`: drop persistent strip that produced null `preferredTPM` (folds #2612). - `fix(foundationdb)`: relocate `faultDomain`, `imageType`, `labels`, `minimumUptimeSecondsForBounce` from inside `automationOptions` to direct children of `spec`. - `fix(kafka)`: place `enableServiceLinks` under `template.pod`, not a phantom `template.spec`. - `fix(vm-instance)`: emit `disk: {}` (not `disk:`/null) when no bus is set. - `fix(platform)`: drop deprecated `upgrade.force: true` from HelmReleases; fix `kafka` WorkloadMonitor `replicas` paths. **Ordering / deadlock fixes under v2.8 kstatus:** - `fix(vpa)`: break circular wait between parent install and nested `vpa-for-vpa` HR. - `fix(kubernetes)`: drop lookup-guarded parent-HR `dependsOn` on tenant addon child HRs (parent waits on child via kstatus, child waited on parent — deadlock). **E2E waits for v2.8 kstatus timing:** - `test(e2e)`: bump app HR-Ready waits to 5m (was 20s–100s under v2.7's faster dispatch). - `test(e2e)`: wait for parent HR Ready before downstream asserts in `run-kubernetes.sh` and `vminstance.bats`. ## Scope discipline This PR is part of the split of #2619 (the consolidated CI fixes branch) into review-friendly pieces. Companion PRs: - **PR #2601** (seaweedfs split) — folded into this PR (commits `29c6afc8`, `0e8b46d7`, `7157158c`, `dccdeb52`, `f880b324`): the seaweedfs-system → seaweedfs-db + seaweedfs-system split, its adoption migration 43 (targetVersion 44), and the configurable db resources all land here, because the strict-SSA `upgrade.force` removal and the kstatus parent-HR timeout bump only make sense together with the split. #2601 is superseded. - **PR #2558** (drop 3× retry on `Run E2E` + `Install Cozystack`) — independent, lands separately. - Several smaller standalone fixes lifted out of #2619 (startup probes, cert-manager `dependsOn`, prepull machinery, CSI HR timeout, NFS/OIDC test improvements) — opened as separate PRs. ## Verification - `helm template` renders cleanly for both `fluxcd` and `fluxcd-operator` packages with `web.enabled=false` (default) and `web.enabled=true`. - Embedded `cmd/cozystack-operator` binary contains the v1.5.0 / v1.8.0 / v2.1.0 controller image strings. - No references to the v0.39-removed `--disable-wait-interruption` flag anywhere in `packages/` or `internal/`. ### Release note ```release-note Flux upgraded to v2.8.0 (helm-controller v1.5 — Helm v4 Server-Side Apply with --force-conflicts, kstatus health checking). When upgrading existing clusters: - Kubernetes 1.33+ is now required for the platform (management) cluster, and for any tenant cluster that enables the optional (default-off) Flux addon — that addon ships the bumped Flux too. - HelmReleases no longer set `upgrade.force: true`. Helm v4 SSA resolves field-ownership conflicts automatically (`--force-conflicts`), but that is not the old client-side replace: immutable-field changes (e.g. StatefulSet volumeClaimTemplates/serviceName) no longer self-heal and require manual recreation — delete the object (e.g. `kubectl delete sts <name> --cascade=orphan`) and let Flux recreate it. - KubeVirt: persistent TPM/EFI is re-enabled for the Windows 11/2k22/2k25 preferences (KubeVirt 1.8 VMPersistentState); each affected VM provisions an extra RWO backend-storage PVC from the default StorageClass. - KubeVirt: the EOL centos.7*/centos.stream8* preferences are retained as deprecated, hidden aliases (`tags: hidden`, `instancetype.kubevirt.io/deprecated: "true"`) — existing VMInstances on these profiles keep rendering and need no action on upgrade, but the profiles are no longer offered for new VMs; repoint to centos.stream9/10 when convenient. The gn1.* GPU instancetypes are likewise retained. - FoundationDB: imageType now reaches the operator (silently dropped pre-SSA); it is pinned to `split` to match the value existing clusters effectively ran, so upgrades stay non-disruptive. Set `imageType: unified` to migrate deliberately. ``` <!-- This is an auto-generated comment: release notes by coderabbit.ai --> ## Summary by CodeRabbit * **New Features** * Flux Status web UI: optional web server, config secret, service port, HTTPRoute/Ingress, network policy, and RBAC roles. * New SeaweedFS DB Helm chart and optional managed DB release. * **Improvements** * CRD/schema enhancements: new provider kinds, validations, variant option, and external checksum refs. * Raised Kubernetes prerequisite to 1.30+; extended e2e timeouts for reliability. * **Chores** * Bumped Flux Operator and Flux versions; documentation links updated to fluxoperator.dev. * **Bug Fixes** * Removed aggressive HelmRelease force-upgrade/install flags. <!-- review_stack_entry_start --> [](https://app.coderabbit.ai/change-stack/cozystack/cozystack/pull/2602?utm_source=github_walkthrough&utm_medium=github&utm_campaign=change_stack) <!-- review_stack_entry_end --> <!-- end of auto-generated comment: release notes by coderabbit.ai -->
