Symptoms
The log file for the Event Streams operator pod shows constant looping of reconciliations when installed on Red Hat OpenShift Container Platform 4.5 or later.
2020-09-22 16:01:25 INFO AbstractOperator:173 - [lambda$reconcile$3] Reconciliation #4636(watch) EventStreams(es/example): EventStreams example should be created or updated
2020-09-22 16:01:25 INFO OperatorWatcher:35 - [eventReceived] Reconciliation #4642(watch) EventStreams(es/example): EventStreams example in namespace es was MODIFIED
Causes
The Event Streams operator is notified that an instance of Event Streams has changed and needs to be reconciled. When the reconciliation is complete, the status update triggers a notification which causes a new reconciliation.
