root-ceph addon missing on microk8s "v1.32.0 revision 7537"

[shadyabhi]

Summary

Docs mentions that addon is available since 1.28, however that is not what I'm observing.

What Should Happen Instead?

Addon should be available on v.32.0.

Reproduction Steps

1. Try enabling

shadyabhi@k8s-1:~$ sudo microk8s enable rook-ceph
Addon rook-ceph was not found in any repository
shadyabhi@k8s-1:~$ sudo microk8s version
MicroK8s v1.32.0 revision 7537
shadyabhi@k8s-1:~$

Can you suggest a fix?

• Not available in addons dir:-

shadyabhi@k8s-1:~/microk8s-core-addons/addons$ ls /var/snap/microk8s/common/addons/core/addons
cert-manager  common  community  dashboard  dns  gpu  ha-cluster  helm  helm3  host-access  hostpath-storage  ingress  kube-ovn  mayastor  metallb  metrics-server  minio  observability  prometheus  rbac  registry  storage

• Shouldn't addons be updated with microk8s upgrades?

Are you interested in contributing with a fix?

Hi @shadyabhi ,

I assume this is a microk8s deployment that got refreshed to 1.32, right?

Addons represent workloads and therefore we do not update them as part of snap refresh. The user would need to explicitly call sudo microk8s addons repo update core to get the latest version of the core addons.

@ktsakalozos That fixes this, just that it wasn't obvious to me. I really appreciate the help.
