Versions

CCM Version: No clue, using OKE

Environment:

  • Kubernetes version (use kubectl version): 1.25.4
  • OS (e.g. from /etc/os-release): Oracle Linux 8
  • Kernel (e.g. uname -a): whatever gets provisioned with OKE
  • Others:

What happened?

When I install an ingress controller or do anything that creates a Server of type LoadBalancer, it is provisioning a fixed shape load balancer.

What you expected to happen?

I expect CCM to coordinate with other OCI teams to make sure that the cloud services are working as expected.

How to reproduce it (as minimally and precisely as possible)?

Create an OKE cluster, install an ingress controller like nginx or traefik, and go look at the Load Balancer created.

Anything else we need to know?

Research direction

Start by reproducing this on an OKE cluster with Kubernetes 1.25.4: install an ingress controller such as nginx or traefik and inspect the resulting LoadBalancer. Trace how CCM handles a Service of type LoadBalancer and identify where the default fixed shape is selected. Done means newly created load balancers use the current supported shape behavior rather than the retired fixed shape.
