In `@docs/plans/control-plane-migration-coverage-plan.md`:
- Around line 35-39: Update the fenced blocks at
docs/plans/control-plane-migration-coverage-plan.md lines 35-39, 181-183, and
190-192 with the sh language identifier; mark the report template at lines
202-218 as text; and mark the Go block at
docs/plans/cpms-rollout-logging-plan.md line 282 as go.
- Around line 185-196: Update the offline fallback instructions in the
control-plane migration coverage plan to use the package list from the later
fallback, including only internal/openshift, internal/vsphere, and
internal/metadata, without invoking setup-envtest or setting KUBEBUILDER_ASSETS.
Keep the KUBEBUILDER_ASSETS command only as an optional path for environments
that already have envtest assets.
- Around line 112-155: The migration coverage plan must record the target
OpenShift release and provide versioned upstream CPMS documentation or
equivalent evidence for the rollout strategy. Update UpdateCPMSFailureDomain and
its tests to verify that the CPMS Spec.Strategy.Type is RollingUpdate,
preserving or explicitly enforcing that strategy as appropriate. If this
evidence and assertion cannot be established, report AC3 and AC4 as delegated
but unverified rather than covered.
In `@docs/plans/cpms-rollout-logging-plan.md`:
- Around line 131-145: Move the CPMS rollout branch using allTargetMSExist and
IsCPMSUpdatedForFailureDomains after the existing worker and Node readiness
validation, so ensureWorkloadMigratedRolloutAndScaleDown runs only when target
workers are ready; preserve the existing error handling and add coverage for
updated CPMS with unready target workers if needed.
- Around line 300-341: Update the documented rollout gate fixtures to use
configv1.VSpherePlatformTopology with ComputeCluster,
newInfrastructureForRollout(), newTargetMachineSetForRollout(targetMSName,
"target.example.com", 1), and newSourceMachineSetForRollout(1). In the routing
case, add newReadyWorkerMachineForRollout(...) and newReadyNodeForRollout(...)
so the readiness gate is satisfied; retain the existing routing assertions.
In `@docs/vcenter-privileges.md`:
- Around line 58-62: Update the privilege gap list in vcenter-privileges.md to
document that validateTargetPrivileges checks ObjectAttachable on the datacenter
and cluster but not the VM folder, even though destination initialization
attaches the cluster-ownership tag there. Clearly state this preflight
limitation, or extend the corresponding preflight validation to check the VM
folder privilege.
- Around line 45-46: Update the stale source reference for the datacenter check
in the privileges documentation to point to lines 136–137 or, preferably,
identify the relevant preflight symbol instead of using a line number; do not
reference line 149, which covers target credential lookup.
- Around line 28-38: Update the REST endpoint entries in the vAPI tags
documentation table to use the /rest/com/vmware/cis/tagging base path.
Specifically document ListTagsForCategory as POST
/tag/{category-id}/action/list-tags-for-category, ListAttachedTags as POST
/tag-association/action/list-attached-tags, and AttachTag as POST
/tag-association/{tag-id}/action/attach; keep the existing method and privilege
mappings otherwise unchanged.
- Around line 40-44: Update the required privilege documentation to specify
generic Read permissions on tag and category objects, plus Read on the inventory
object supplied to list-attached-tags. Explain how Global Permissions versus
object-specific permissions provide these grants for each supported vCenter
version, rather than documenting InventoryService.Tagging.Read or relying only
on the root-folder System.View entry.

| 4. The one-at-a-time, quorum-safe *order of control plane machine replacement | ||
| itself* is executed by the upstream OpenShift CPMS operator (machine-api), | ||
| which the operator triggers via the Step-3 CPMS update; this operator only | ||
| writes the desired FDs and waits. | ||
|
|
||
| Verdict if confirmed: **AC2 covered** (operator gates the workflow on | ||
| `ReadyReplicas == Replicas`); **AC4 covered by delegation** (rolling replacement | ||
| sequence enforced upstream; this operator adds the ordering constraint that source | ||
| workers are drained only after CP rollout completes). | ||
|
|
||
| ### Step 4 — Verify AC3 invariant (etcd quorum: no destructive CP path in this repo) | ||
|
|
||
| Confirm the operator can never break quorum by verifying it has **no code path | ||
| that deletes, scales, or mutates control plane machines or the CPMS spec beyond | ||
| the FD/state update**: | ||
|
|
||
| 1. Grep `ControlPlaneMachineSets(` across `internal/`: expect exactly two | ||
| non-test call sites — the `Get` (machines.go ~line 215) and the single | ||
| `Update` (~line 257) — plus one test `Get` (`machines_test.go` ~line 111). | ||
| Expect **zero** `Delete` calls on CPMS in code. (The RBAC role grants `delete` | ||
| on `controlplanemachinesets` per Step 2.4, but no code path exercises it — | ||
| RBAC breadth is not a code path.) | ||
| 2. Grep for control-plane Machine mutation: the only CP Machine operations are | ||
| `ListControlPlaneMachines` (`machines.go` ~line 316, list-only) and | ||
| `logControlPlaneMachine` (logging). All `Delete*`/`Scale*` MachineManager | ||
| methods operate on `MachineSet` resources (workers) and never on control-plane | ||
| Machines. | ||
| 3. Verify the etcd/quorum claim via behavior anchors rather than literal string | ||
| matches: `ensureReady` must call | ||
| `OperatorManager.CheckAllOperatorsStable`, and readiness tests should include | ||
| `etcd` in unstable/stable operator scenarios (for example in | ||
| `internal/controller/ready_test.go` and `internal/openshift/operators_test.go`). | ||
| This confirms the operator gates completion on cluster-operator health while | ||
| quorum-safe replacement ordering remains delegated to the upstream CPMS | ||
| operator. | ||
| 4. Backstop: `ensureReady` (~line 907) requires **all** ClusterOperators, | ||
| including `etcd`, to be Available/not Progressing/not Degraded | ||
| (`OperatorManager.CheckAllOperatorsStable`) and only target vCenters present in | ||
| Infrastructure before setting `ConditionReady` True. | ||
|
|
||
| Verdict if confirmed: **AC3 covered by delegation** — quorum-safe ordering is the | ||
| contract of the upstream CPMS operator; this operator never intervenes in the | ||
| rolling replacement and gates completion on the etcd ClusterOperator being | ||
| healthy. |

Record the target OpenShift release and CPMS rollout strategy for AC3/AC4.
Local tests cover CPMS updates, status polling, and worker cleanup. ensureReady covers the final etcd health gate, not quorum preservation during replacement. The vendored API documents RollingUpdate replacement ordering, but UpdateCPMSFailureDomain preserves the live strategy and tests do not assert Spec.Strategy.Type. Add versioned upstream CPMS evidence and verify RollingUpdate; otherwise report AC3 and AC4 as delegated but unverified.

Make the offline fallback independent of envtest assets.
The fallback at Lines 190-192 still runs bin/setup-envtest use -p path, which can fail for the same network or download reason as make test. It also runs ./internal/..., which includes the TestControllers envtest suite described earlier. Therefore, this is not a non-envtest fallback.
Use the package list at Lines 194-196 when envtest assets are unavailable. Reserve the KUBEBUILDER_ASSETS command for environments with an existing asset path.

🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟠 Major | 🏗️ Heavy lift
Keep the worker-readiness prerequisite in the cluster-state gate.
The proposed branch enters the rollout path when only allTargetMSExist && cpmsUpdated is true. It runs before the existing worker-readiness check, so a target MachineSet can exist while its Machines or Nodes are not Ready.
This conflicts with the stated gate requirement. The supplied internal/controller/workload_migration_rollout_test.go gate case includes both a ready worker and a ready Node. Move this branch after the readiness check, or include the same readiness predicate and add a test for an updated CPMS with unready target workers.

Align the documented gate test with the actual rollout fixtures.
Use configv1.VSpherePlatformTopology with ComputeCluster, newInfrastructureForRollout(), newTargetMachineSetForRollout(targetMSName, "target.example.com", 1), and newSourceMachineSetForRollout(1). The routing case must also include newReadyWorkerMachineForRollout(...) and newReadyNodeForRollout(...); an empty NodeList cannot satisfy the readiness gate.

VMware vSphere InventoryService.Tagging.Read privilege scope categories tags attached tags vSphere 7 API
💡 Result:
In the vSphere API, the read privilege required for tagging operations is generally referred to as the read privilege on the specific tag or category [1][2][3]. While the vSphere documentation explicitly lists many specific privileges like InventoryService.Tagging.AttachTag or InventoryService.Tagging.CreateTag [4][5], the "read" privilege required to view tag and category information is typically implied as a standard read permission on the tag or category object itself rather than a specifically named "InventoryService.Tagging.Read" privilege string in the same format as other tagging privileges [1][2][3]. Key points regarding tag-related privileges and scope: 1. Permission Scope: Tag objects are global in nature and are not part of the standard vCenter inventory object hierarchy (e.g., they are not children of hosts or VMs) [6][7]. Consequently, standard inventory permissions (like those assigned to a folder or VM) do not grant the ability to perform tag operations [6][7]. To manage or view tags, a user must have either Global Permissions or permissions assigned directly to the tag object [6][7]. 2. Required Read Privileges: - To view tag information, you need read privileges on the tag [1][2][3]. - To view category information, you need read privileges on the category [1]. - To list tags attached to an object, you need read privileges on the target object (e.g., the VM) [8][9][10]. The API response will then filter the list to show only those tags for which the user also has read privileges [1][8][10]. - When enumerating tags in the system or for a category, the list returned by the API will only include items for which the user has the necessary read privileges [1][2]. 3. Privilege Inheritance: Permissions for tag objects differ from standard inventory objects; tag-level permissions can extend Global Permissions, and permissions on a tag object apply specifically to that object, overriding default propagation behaviors seen elsewhere in the vSphere hierarchy [6][7]. For developers using the vSphere Automation API, ensure your service account or user has the appropriate global or object-specific read permissions for tags to successfully invoke read-only methods like fetching tag details or listing attached tags [1][8][10].

site:techdocs.broadcom.com vSphere "InventoryService.Tagging.Read"
💡 Result:
The term InventoryService.Tagging.Read is not listed as a standard vSphere privilege in official documentation [1][2][3][4]. vSphere tagging privileges follow a specific naming convention under the InventoryService.Tagging group, such as InventoryService.Tagging.CreateTag, InventoryService.Tagging.AttachTag, or InventoryService.Tagging.EditTag [1][3]. These privileges control actions like creating, deleting, assigning, or editing tags and categories within the vCenter Server inventory [1][2]. If you are encountering this specific string, it may be a custom privilege created within a specific vCenter environment, or a misidentification of the required permissions. To view tag assignments or retrieve information about tags in vSphere, standard privileges such as System.View or specific Tagging privileges are typically required depending on the scope and the specific operation being performed [5][6].

💡 Result:
To invoke the vSphere Automation API operation list-attached-tags, you require the read privilege on the input object [1]. When you perform this operation, the system will return only those tags for which you also have read privileges [1]. In the context of the vSphere Web Services API (vStorage Object Manager), the equivalent operation to list tags attached to a virtual storage object is ListTagsAttachedToVStorageObject, which requires the System.Read privilege [2][3]. If you are working with the CIS Tagging TagAssociation API, ensure your user account has sufficient read permissions on the target object to successfully retrieve the associated tags [1].

site:dp-downloads-pstg.broadcom.com/api-content/apis/API_VAAR_001/7.0 "TagAssociation" "Read"
💡 Result:
In the context of the VMware vSphere API, TagAssociation refers to the mechanism used to manage relationships between tags and inventory objects (such as virtual machines or datastores) [1][2][3]. There is no single operation simply called "Read" for a TagAssociation; instead, "reading" or retrieving these associations is performed through specific list and retrieval operations [4][1][5]. Key operations related to accessing or "reading" tag associations include: 1. List Attached Objects on Tags: The list_attached_objects_on_tags operation retrieves an array mapping tag identifiers to the objects to which they are attached [1][3]. This operation requires read privileges on each input tag [1]. 2. List Attached Tags on Objects: Although documented via the list_attached_tags_on_objects operation (associated with the object_to_tags structure), this is the primary method for retrieving all tags currently associated with a specific inventory object [5]. 3. List Tag Associations: The list operation under vcenter tagging associations allows users to retrieve tag associations that match a specified iteration specification [4][6]. To perform these read operations, users typically must have the appropriate read privileges on the relevant tags and objects [1][2]. Other related operations, such as detach, are used for modifying these associations rather than reading them [2].

Document the generic Read permissions instead of InventoryService.Tagging.Read.
InventoryService.Tagging.Read is not a standard vSphere privilege. Tag and category reads require the generic Read privilege on the individual category and tag objects. list-attached-tags also requires Read on the input inventory object, and returns only tags that the caller can read. Describe whether Global Permissions or object-specific permissions provide these grants for each supported vCenter version. The root-folder entry alone does not document these requirements.

Document the missing VM-folder privilege check.
validateTargetPrivileges checks ObjectAttachable on the datacenter and cluster, but not on the VM folder. The destination initialization path attaches the cluster-ownership tag to that VM folder. A user can therefore pass the documented preflight checks and fail during destination initialization. Add this omission to the gap list, and either extend preflight to check the folder or state the limitation clearly. (raw.githubusercontent.com)
