Abstract: The disclosure provides a method for diagnosing remote sites of a distributed container orchestration system. The method generally includes receiving a test suite custom resource defining an image to be used for a diagnosis of components of a workload cluster deployed at the remote sites, wherein the image comprises a diagnosis module and/or a user-provided plugin to be used for the diagnosis; identifying a failed component in the workload cluster; obtaining infrastructure information about the workload cluster; identifying the components of the workload cluster for diagnosis based on the failed component, the infrastructure information, and the test suite custom resource; identifying at least one diagnosis site of the remote sites where the components are running using the infrastructure information; and deploying a first pod at the at least one diagnosis site to execute the diagnosis of the one or more components.

Abstract: The disclosure provides a method for preparing a simulation system to simulate upgrade operations for a distributed container orchestration system. The method generally includes monitoring, by a simulation operator of the simulation system, for new resources generated at a management cluster in the distributed container orchestration system, based on the monitoring, discovering, by the simulation operator, a new resource generated at the management cluster specifying a version of container orchestration software supported and made available by the management cluster, and triggering, by the simulation operator, a creation of a new mock virtual machine (VM) template in the simulation system specifying the version of the container orchestration software, wherein the simulation system is configured to use the new mock VM template for simulating mock VMs in the simulation system that are compatible with the version of the container orchestration software supported and made available by the management cluster.
