🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick win

Regenerate the bundle before rendering the catalog.

make catalog-build VERSION=0.0.2 writes a channel entry for vcf-migration-operator.v0.0.2, but it renders the existing bundle directory. If that directory still contains v0.0.1, opm validate fails because the channel references a missing bundle. Make catalog-generate depend on bundle.

Proposed fix

## Getting Started

### Prerequisites
- go version v1.25.0+
- podman
- kubectl version v1.11.3+
- Access to a Kubernetes v1.11.3+ cluster
- OpenShift Container Platform 4.18+ or 5.0+ (or Kubernetes v1.30.0+)
- `cluster-admin` privileges
- OpenShift CLI (`oc`) or `kubectl`
- Container tool (`podman` or `docker`)
- Go v1.25.0+ (for local development)

### To Deploy on the cluster
**Build and push your image to the location specified by `IMG`:**
### Installation via OLM v1 (Recommended)

```sh
make operator-image operator-push IMG=<some-registry>/vcf-migration-operator:tag
```
On OpenShift 4.18+ and 5.0+, the operator is installed via Operator Lifecycle Manager v1 (OLM v1) using `ClusterCatalog` and `ClusterExtension`:

1. **Deploy the File-Based Catalog:**
```bash
oc apply -f config/samples/olmv1/cluster_catalog.yaml
```

2. **Deploy the Operator Extension:**
```bash
oc apply -f config/samples/olmv1/cluster_extension.yaml
```

OpenShift 4.18 OLM v1 ClusterExtension installNamespace namespace ServiceAccount RBAC bundle CSV install strategy

💡 Result:

In OpenShift 4.18, OLM v1 introduces the ClusterExtension API to manage cluster extensions, including Operators using the registry+v1 bundle format [1][2]. Key aspects of OLM v1 regarding installation, namespaces, and security are as follows: 1. Namespace and ServiceAccount: While the ClusterExtension custom resource (CR) includes a namespace field (which designates the namespace where the extension's namespace-scoped resources are applied) [3][4] and a serviceAccount field, the serviceAccount field is deprecated and ignored by the operator-controller [3]. OLM v1 is a single-tenant system where the operator-controller operates with cluster-admin privileges, effectively delegating trust to users with write access to ClusterExtension objects [3]. 2. RBAC Management: Because OLM v1 does not use the provided service account to install extensions, administrators must ensure the necessary RBAC permissions are defined to allow the operator-controller to manage the extension [5][6]. You must determine the required permissions by analyzing the extension's bundle manifests, specifically the ClusterServiceVersion (CSV) [5][7]. This includes: - RBAC for the installation service account to create/manage the extension's CRDs, deployments, services, and config maps [6]. - RBAC to grant the extension controller's service account the permissions declared in the CSV's spec.install.permissions and spec.install.clusterPermissions [5][6]. 3. Install Strategy: The ClusterServiceVersion (CSV) continues to use an InstallStrategy to define how the Operator is deployed [8][9]. When installing an Operator as a cluster extension in OLM v1, the bundle must use the registry+v1 format [1][7]. The operator-controller parses the CSV's install strategy (typically deployment-based) to understand the runtime requirements, such as the deployments and the associated permissions needed for the operator to function correctly [5][9]. In summary, the OLM v1 operator-controller handles the installation using its own high-privilege service account, while administrators must pre-configure the necessary RBAC to allow the controller to manage the specific resources defined within the bundle's CSV [3][5][6].

site:operator-framework.github.io/operator-controller/howto/derive-service-account OLM v1 derive service account apply RBAC ClusterExtension namespace

💡 Result:

In OLM v1, because the Operator Controller does not have inherent permission to install extensions, it must be provided with a dedicated ServiceAccount that possesses the necessary permissions to manage the extension's resources [1]. To derive these permissions for a ClusterExtension, you must examine the contents of the extension's bundle image [1]. The bundle contains: 1. The manifests for all resources (e.g., CRDs, Deployments, Secrets) that the extension will manage [1]. 2. A ClusterServiceVersion (CSV) which explicitly details the permission requirements for the extension's own controller service account [1]. The ServiceAccount used by OLM v1 to install the extension requires sufficient RBAC permissions to [1]: - Create and manage the extension's CustomResourceDefinitions (CRDs). - Create and manage all resources bundled within the extension (e.g., Services, ConfigMaps, Deployments). - Create and manage the extension controller's ServiceAccount. - Create and manage the necessary Role, RoleBinding, ClusterRole, and ClusterRoleBinding resources required by the extension controller's ServiceAccount. - Create and manage the extension controller's Deployment. Essentially, the installer ServiceAccount acts with the authority to perform all actions defined within the bundle's manifests, including granting the extension's own controller the specific permissions specified in the CSV's spec.install.clusterPermissions (for cluster-scoped) and spec.install.permissions (for namespace-scoped) fields [1].

operator-controller ClusterExtension spec serviceAccount deprecated ignored installer ServiceAccount derive-service-account exact API reference

💡 Result:

In the OLMv1 operator-controller, the spec.serviceAccount field within the ClusterExtension resource is deprecated and completely ignored [1][2]. OLMv1 has shifted to a single-tenant architecture where the operator-controller operates with cluster-admin privileges [1][2]. Consequently, the controller now uses its own service account for all cluster interactions, effectively eliminating the previous requirement for users to provide a specific ServiceAccount for extension installation and management [1][2][3]. Key details regarding this change include: - Deprecation Status: The spec.serviceAccount field is marked as deprecated in the API with the godoc convention and will be removed in a future release [1][2]. - System Behavior: Setting this field has no functional impact; it is ignored by the controller [1][4]. - Developer Warnings: To assist in the transition, the system includes a ValidatingAdmissionPolicy that emits a warning when spec.serviceAccount is defined in a ClusterExtension manifest [2][3]. - Documentation Changes: Documentation and guides previously referencing the derivation or use of a service account for ClusterExtensions have been deprecated or removed to reflect this move to cluster-admin scope [3][5]. Users should rely on the operator-controller's default cluster-admin permissions for managing extensions, rather than attempting to configure separate service accounts for them [1][2][3].

Create the target namespace before applying the ClusterExtension.

The README does not create openshift-vcf-migration, although docs/install.md requires it before installation. Add oc create namespace openshift-vcf-migration before the ClusterExtension command. OLM v1 does not require a user-provided installer ServiceAccount.

Align the OLM v1 manifests and installation examples with the required schemas.

ClusterCatalog must provide spec.source.type: Image and spec.source.image.ref. ClusterExtension must provide spec.namespace, spec.serviceAccount.name, and catalog source details under spec.source, including sourceType: Catalog, package name, and channels. Update both sample manifests and the corresponding inline examples in docs/install.md, and include the installer service account and required RBAC so the documented installation can resolve and install the operator.
