Bug 2033751: Return Error when trying to use Scheduler Policy by damemi · Pull Request #390 · openshift/cluster-kube-scheduler-operator

The scheduler's Policy api was removed in 1.23, see kubernetes/kubernetes#105828

As an alternative we could also keep just using the default (lownodeutilization) here, in order to not break the scheduler on upgrades. In that case, log a message that we're using the default profile instead. Open to ideas

With manageKubeSchedulerConfigMap_v311_00_to_latest returning error when len(config.Spec.Policy.Name) > 0, the kube-scheduler container will keep crash looping since the configmap with the profile will be missing (assuming the scheduler/cluster object was specified with .spec.policy.name set during the cluster provisioning). I wonder if you took this case into account and whether it would make more sense to move len(config.Spec.Policy.Name) > 0 check alongside the config, err := configSchedulerLister.Get("cluster") line at the beginning of the managePod_v311_00_to_latest function and return an error as well so the pod does not get created and kept crash looping until the policy field is cleared?

The case covers the bootstrapping phase in which (when .spec.policy.name is not empty) the installation fails. So it is unlikely any admin will update the scheduler/cluster object rather than running the installation again. So, the net benefit for the normal installation is quite low. On the other hand when the hypershift topology is used (with one cluster hosting many control planes), postponing the creation of the kube-scheduler pod might safe the step of debugging why the pod is crash looping (depending on how the control plan is provisioned).

My comment is more for the debugging purposes than the functional/conceptual ones. The operator will go degraded when the policy field is set.
