feat(upgrade): nodewright v0.18.0 record; relax rule 2 to safe only - #2815
Merged

Conversation
Add recipes/components/nodewright-operator/upgrades.yaml describing the v0.18.0 Skyhook -> NodeWright rename: manual, with per-deployer steps transcribed from upstream's docs/getting-started/migration.md, and a to ceiling at v0.18.0 so any higher target reports blocked and is told to cross the rename on its own. Authoring it required relaxing ADR-021 rule 2, which held every verdict's to ceiling at or below the pinned version. Only safe vouches, so only safe is held to what AICR ships; manual and blocked are warnings carrying instructions and cannot read as a pass. Holding them to the pin forced the wrong order of work - bump first, document after - when reading the migration notes is what qualifies the bump. The obligation stays self-renewing through rule 3, which fails any bump leaving a from hole below the new pin. Signed-off-by: Alex Yuskauskas <ayuskauskas@nvidia.com>

Tie the safe ceiling rationale to AICR's pin.
A version above AICR's pin may already be released upstream. The rule prevents safe records from vouching for versions that AICR does not currently ship.
Replace the sentence at both cited locations with wording that states this AICR-specific scope.

Add Flux-specific GitOps migration steps.
For Flux's Git-source path, the generic kubectl steps do not update Git. The root Flux Kustomization reconciles the repository with prune: true; if Git still declares a Skyhook, Flux can recreate it after the direct deletion.
Add a deployers: [flux] group. First commit and reconcile the operator bump. Then commit the CR rename and legacy removal together. Restrict the remainder group to helm and helmfile.

">=0.18.0 <=0.18.0" is a degenerate range only 0.18.0 satisfies, written the long way. parseBounds gives "=" the identical inclusive lower and upper bounds, so this is the same boundary said plainly, and the blocked report now reads "stops at =0.18.0" instead of restating both comparators.

Summary
Add the
nodewright-operatortransition record for thev0.18.0Skyhook→NodeWrightrename, and relax ADR-021 rule 2 so that only asafeverdict is held to the currently pinned version.Motivation / Context
AICR pins
nodewright-operatoratv0.17.1and deliberately holds it there (#2633 rolled back thev0.18.0pin) until the readiness path lands. Butv0.18.0is the boundary operators actually need guidance for: it is released, AICR ran it on a live GB300 cluster, and upstream ships a full migration guide. Rule 2 forbade writing that record, because itstoceiling would reach past the pin.That rule conflates what AICR ships with what the author assessed. For a component held below a known-breaking release the two diverge, and the record most worth having is the one describing the release AICR is not shipping. Rule 2's own rationale — "an author cannot have read the migration notes for a version nobody has released" — does not apply to a released version whose notes are published.

Rule 2 now applies to
safeonly (pkg/upgrade/wellformed.go).safeis the vouching verdict, and vouching past what AICR ships is the false-confidence failure ADR-021 exists to prevent.manualandblockedare warnings carrying instructions: reaching forward over-warns rather than passing something unassessed, and cannot read as a pass. Holding them to the pin forced the wrong order of work — bump first, document after — when the order that qualifies a bump is read the migration notes → write the record → bump.The obligation stays self-renewing. That was never rule 2's doing: rule 3 (
checkCoverageReachesPin) fails any bump that leaves afromhole below the new pin, whatever a ceiling says. Verified independently.The record is
from: "<0.18.0"→to: "=0.18.0",manual, transcribed from upstreamdocs/getting-started/migration.md:v0.18.0→v0.18.0manual, 5 steps + preconditionv0.18.0→v0.19.0blocked, "stops at =0.18.0"So the rename has to be crossed on its own rather than composed with whatever follows it.
Skyhookcompletewith no nodes in progress. It is a requirement, not a recommendation — the migration relabels the operator's package and per-node ConfigMaps and assumes no in-flight package work.paused/disabledare fine to leave as-is.[argocd, argocd-helm]gets the rename-in-one-commit sequence (leaving both kinds in git lets the mirror stomp a git edit);[flux, helm, helmfile]gets upgrade →sedswap → delete legacy. Both carry the blanket-sedtrap: rewriteapiVersion/kindonly, since a global substitution also rewritesnodeSelectors/podNonInterruptLabels, which name your labels, making the CR match no node.nodewright-customizationshealth check still poll the legacy kind until deployment validator polls deprecated Skyhook CR; nodewright v0.18.0 writes status only on NodeWright #2593/nodewright v0.18.0 upgrade changed the CR status contract (Skyhook -> NodeWright); legacy status never populates #2594 land. Upstream supports this crossing; AICR's validation path does not yet.reversible: falsedespite upstream'sLEGACY_CLEANUP_DELAYrollback window, because the window is conditional and closes once the legacy CRs are deleted. That fact lives in the delete step'sreasonrather than as a barereversible: true, which would read as reassurance.Docs updated everywhere the old rule was stated: ADR-021 (5 sites),

Risk Assessment
Rollout notes: No pin moves and no generated artifact changes, so bundles are byte-identical. The rule change only widens what a record may say, so every existing record stays valid —
groveis unaffected. The one judgement worth review is whethersafeis the right line to draw: the trade is that amanual/blockedceiling is no longer mechanically anchored to anything, so an over-wide one is caught by review rather than by the gate.Checklist
