Kyverno Rule Type

Mutate

Description

When installing a helm chart, I frequently get the following: Error: Internal error occurred: failed calling webhook "mutate.kyverno.svc-fail": Post "https://kyverno-svc.kyverno.svc:443/mutate?timeout=10s": context deadline exceeded

Steps to reproduce

Policy:

kind: ClusterPolicy
apiVersion: kyverno.io/v1
metadata:
  name: set-daemonset-pod-priority
spec:
  rules:
    - name: set-daemonset-pod-priority
      match:
        any:
        - resources:
            kinds:
            - DaemonSet
      mutate:
        patchStrategicMerge:
          spec:
            template:
              spec:
                +(priorityClassName): "daemonset"

Kyverno values:

replicaCount: 3

resources:
  limits:
    cpu: 400m
    memory: 512Mi
  requests:
    cpu: 400m
    memory: 512Mi

serviceMonitor:
  enabled: true

Expected behavior

Webhook should complete much faster than 10s
