Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to Harbor’s database replicas can remain in one zone under the default placement, so a zone outage could interrupt Harbor. Resolve or explicitly accept this availability risk before merging. Pre-merge checks |

Every docker login, pull and push goes through nginx, core and registry, and each of them ran as a single pod: losing the node that hosted one stopped all registry traffic, however many database and Redis instances backed it. The vendored chart already scales them and the registry keeps its blobs in S3, so only the wrapper was missing the knobs. Placement is added only above one replica, so an install on the default renders the pod templates it had. It follows the platform's scheduling.globalAppTopologySpreadConstraints, like the other applications, so an operator sets the placement policy once for the whole cluster. Without one, a soft zone and node spread stands in: soft so that a cluster without zone labels, or with fewer nodes than replicas, still schedules every replica. The data tier follows the same policy through topologySpreadConstraints rather than affinity, which keeps the per-node anti-affinity CloudNativePG and the Redis operator apply by default: replacing the RedisFailover affinity, or moving CNPG's topologyKey to the zone, would drop it on a cluster without zone labels.

mattia-eleuteri NOT LGTM, one small thing: the four new replicas fields accept 0 and negative values.
The rest holds up. The single-pod request path is a real outage on node loss, the knobs are values the vendored chart already has, and at the default of 1 nothing beyond replicas: 1 is forwarded. The data-tier restart on upgrade is stated in the release note. On a trial merge with current main both charts pass helm unittest (72 tests), the harbor schema regenerates with cozyvalues-gen v1.7.0 without drift, and dropping minAvailable: 0 or breaking the sentinel selector fails the tests.
Blocker
B1: replicas has no lower bound
nginx.replicas, portal.replicas, core.replicas and registry.replicas are plain {int} fields, so the schema takes 0 or -1. The helper forwards the value as is. With 0 the Deployment scales to zero and every docker login, pull and push stops, while the WorkloadMonitor still expects minReplicas: 1. With -1 the apiserver rejects the Deployment and the nested HelmRelease fails.
Fix: add ## @minimum 1 under each of the four @field lines and regenerate. cozyvalues-gen supports constraints on @field, and packages/apps/redis/values.yaml already uses @minimum. Adding the bound now is cheap. Adding it after release would reject objects that already store 0. A unittest case for the rejected value would be nice too.
nginx, portal, core and registry replicas were plain integers, so the schema accepted 0, which scales every docker login, pull and push away while the WorkloadMonitor still expects one pod, and negative values, which fail the nested HelmRelease at the apiserver. Bound all four to a minimum of 1 and cover the rejection in the unit tests. Assisted-by: LLM Signed-off-by: Mattia Eleuteri <[email protected]>

🩺 Stability & Availability | 🟠 Major | ⚡ Quick winUse a hard zone constraint for the default CNPG placement.
When no global policy exists,
packages/system/harbor/templates/_helpers.tplemitsScheduleAnyway. CNPG 1.30.0 uses hostname-only default anti-affinity, so instances can occupy different nodes in the same zone. A zone failure can remove every CNPG instance and the database service. This does not satisfy the PR’s zone-loss availability objective.Suggested fix

What this PR does
Closes #4824.
Every
docker login, pull and push goes through nginx → core (/service/token) → registry, and each of them ran as a single pod. Losing the node that hosted one stopped all registry traffic, however many PostgreSQL and Redis instances backed it. The vendored goharbor chart already scales these components and the registry keeps its blobs in S3, so only the wrapper was missing the knobs.Request path (
packages/apps/harbor)New
nginx.replicas,portal.replicas,core.replicasandregistry.replicas, all defaulting to1.Above one replica, the wrapper forwards to the upstream chart a
podDisruptionBudgetwithmaxUnavailable: 1andtopologySpreadConstraints. Upstream defaultsminAvailableto 1 and renders whichever of the two fields is set, and the API server rejects a PDB carrying both, so the wrapper forwardsminAvailable: 0to drop it.At one replica nothing but
replicas: 1is forwarded, which is the upstream default, so an existing install renders the same Deployments as before.The
WorkloadMonitors for core, registry and portal takereplicasfrom the values instead of a hard-coded1.minReplicasstays at 1, since one serving replica is enough for the component to work.The spread follows the platform's
scheduling.globalAppTopologySpreadConstraints(read from_cluster.scheduling), as postgres, etcd, keycloak, grafana and kubernetes-nodes already do, so the cluster operator sets the policy once. When the platform sets none, a soft spread stands in: zone then hostname, bothScheduleAnyway, so a cluster without zone labels or with fewer nodes than replicas still schedules every replica. AnylabelSelectorin the policy is dropped, because the upstream chart appends its ownrelease/app/componentselector to every entry.Data tier (
packages/system/harbor)Cluster(whendatabase.replicas > 1), the Redis pods (whenredis.replicas > 1) and the three sentinels (always) gettopologySpreadConstraintsfrom the same platform policy, each entry scoped to the component's own pods. When the platform sets none, they get aScheduleAnywayzone spread; spreading across nodes is already handled by the operators' default anti-affinity.Deviations from the issue, on purpose
globalAppTopologySpreadConstraintsinstead of a set of rules hard-coded in Harbor, to stay consistent with the other applications. The fallback spreads across nodes with atopologySpreadConstraintsentry rather than a preferredpodAntiAffinityterm: the upstream chart appends its own selector to spread entries, while an affinity term is passed through verbatim and would have to hard-code that label set in the wrapper.topologySpreadConstraints, notaffinity.topologyKey: topology.kubernetes.io/zone. Moving CNPG'stopologyKeyto the zone, or settingaffinityon the RedisFailover (which replaces the operator's default), would drop the per-node anti-affinity both operators apply today, so instances could share a node on a cluster without zone labels. With spread constraints the two add up.jobservice.replicas(item 5 of the issue, which needsjobLoggers: [database]) is left for a follow-up, as the issue suggests.Upgrade impact
database.replicasandredis.replicasdefault to 2, so on upgrade most installs see a one-off rolling restart of the CNPG instances (with a switchover), of the Redis pods and of the sentinels, as their pod spec gains the spread constraint. Where the platform policy usesDoNotSchedule, it is now enforced for Harbor pods too, as it already is for the other applications.Tests
packages/apps/harbor/tests/replica_placement_test.yaml: defaults forward nothing beyondreplicas: 1; above one replica the PDB and spread are forwarded; the platform policy replaces the fallback and loses itslabelSelector, and is ignored at one replica; components scale independently;registry.replicaslands at the Deployment level, not underregistry.registry; WorkloadMonitors follow the values.packages/system/harbor/tests/zone_spread_test.yaml: CNPG, Redis and sentinel spread with the right selectors and noaffinityoverride, both with the fallback and with a multi-entry platform policy whose selector gets replaced; and, rendering the vendored chart with the values the wrapper forwards, the PDB carriesmaxUnavailablealone and the spread entries are scoped to the component's pods.minAvailable: 0, upstream PDB without the zeroing, CNPG spread removed, platform policy ignored).helm unitteston both charts: 72/72 passing. Also rendered the app chart, with and without a platform policy, fed its HelmRelease values into the system chart, and checked the resulting Deployments, PDBs and CNPGCluster.Screenshots
