= Troubleshooting the {rhoso-gitops-pattern}

[id="rhoso-gitops-validate-pattern"]
== Validating the pattern

Run pattern validation commands from the pattern repository root:

[source,terminal]
----
$ ./pattern.sh make validate-prereq
$ ./pattern.sh make validate-schema
$ ./pattern.sh make argo-healthcheck
----

[id="rhoso-gitops-check-argocd"]
== Checking Argo CD application status

The pattern uses two Argo CD namespaces. List applications in each:

[source,terminal]
----
$ oc get applications -n vp-gitops
$ oc get applications -n openshift-gitops
----

Inspect a child application that is out of sync or unhealthy:

[source,terminal]
----
$ oc describe application <application-name> -n openshift-gitops
----

Use the Argo CD UI in the `openshift-gitops` namespace to review sync waves,
resource health, and diff details for upstream overlays.

[id="rhoso-gitops-check-pods"]
== Checking pod status

To verify that workloads deployed successfully, list pods that are not Running or
Completed:

[source,terminal]
----
$ oc get pods -A | grep -v Running | grep -v Completed
----

Review logs for a specific pod:

[source,terminal]
----
$ oc logs -n <namespace> <pod-name>
----

== Known issues

* *`openstack-secrets` disabled* — The default pattern leaves
  `openstack-secrets` disabled because no Git path is configured (`path: TODO`).
  Enable it only after you configure secret wiring and a bootstrap credential
  out of band. See link:../configuration/#rhoso-gitops-secret-zero[Secret zero
  (bootstrap credential)].
* *Upstream sync failures* — Confirm `targetRevision` and paths in
  `overrides/values-rhoso-gitops.yaml` match a tag or branch that exists in
  link:https://github.com/openstack-k8s-operators/gitops[openstack-k8s-operators/gitops].
* *Operator install delays* — Infrastructure operators in `operator-dependencies`
  subscribe from the cluster catalog; allow time for OLM to resolve CSVs before
  later sync waves run.

link:https://github.com/validatedpatterns-sandbox/rhoso-gitops/issues[pattern repository].
