docs/AppFramework.md

The App Framework maintains a checksum for each app or add-on archive file in the App Source location in the form of the Etag of the remote storage object. The app name and checksum is recorded in the CR, and used to compare the deployed apps to the app archive files in the App Source location. The App Framework will scan for changes to the App Source folders using the polling interval, and deploy any updated apps to the instance. For the App Framework to detect that an app or add-on had changed, the updated app must use the same archive file name as the previously deployed one.

To disable applying the cluster bundle by default when the cluster manager pod starts up, add the environment variable `SPLUNK_SKIP_CLUSTER_BUNDLE_PUSH="true"` to the splunk-operator-controller-manager deployment, or the individual CRs. This option is available for Splunk Enterprise versions 9.2.8, 9.3.6, 9.4.4, and 10.x. Check the compatibility with SOK versions in the [releases](https://github.com/splunk/splunk-operator/releases).

Why can't we disable this in operator ?

It is an ansible step that was done by default. We have been working with support and a customer who was facing issues regarding this, and the ansible team has provided a way to skip it with the use of this environment variable. This documentation tells customers how to skip the ansible step using the environment variable. You can see the related splunk-ansible PR in the description.
