…alues The template hello-world-cm.yaml references .Values.global.localClusterDomain but the values file had the key named localCluster, causing the template to render with an empty value.
Setting insecureEdgeTerminationPolicy to Allow permits unencrypted HTTP traffic to the routes. Changing to Redirect forces all HTTP requests to be redirected to HTTPS, improving security. Affected routes: - hello-world - config-demo
The container already has emptyDir volumes mounted for all writable paths: - /tmp - /var/cache/httpd - /var/run/httpd - /var/www/html (via configMap) With these mounts in place, the root filesystem can safely be read-only, improving container security posture.
- Add image.repository, image.tag, image.pullPolicy to both chart values - Update deployments to use templated image values - Remove commented imagePullPolicy, now explicit in values - Allows image overrides without modifying templates Affected charts: - hello-world - config-demo
Kubernetes auto-populates creationTimestamp. Explicitly setting it to null in templates is unnecessary and may cause validation warnings.
….yaml The validated patterns operator expects 'argoProject' not 'project'. Also rename 'projects' to 'argoProjects' for consistency with values-hub.yaml.
