Known Issues

We have identified the following known issues with Dynatrace Operator version 1.6.3

When switching from using the CSI driver without codeModulesImage to using it with node image pull, ensure that the CSI driver’s filesystem does not contain a code module for the specified DynaKube. If it does, the CSI driver will fail and require manual intervention to recover.
- This issue is fixed in Dynatrace Operator version 1.7+. We highly recommend upgrading to mitigate this issue.
- Other ways to solve the problem:
  - Delete the DynaKube and recreate it. However, this can cause monitoring gaps.
- In case this issue is encountered, reverting back to not using the codeModulesImage will make the CSI driver operational again.
- You can use the find command to check for the downloaded code module for a DynaKube in the filesystem of the CSI server container:
```
  > find /data -name latest-codemodule
  /data/_dynakubes/my-dynakube-1/latest-codemodule
  /data/_dynakubes/my-dynakube-2/latest-codemodule
```

Resolved issues

Reintroduced the mark for termination event, which was previously removed in Dynatrace Operator version 1.6.0, to address challenges in reliably detecting node terminations in setups facilitating auto-scaler. This feature requires your API token to have the DataExport token scope.
