More than 5% of REST calls failed in virt-controller in the last 60 minutes.
This is most likely because virt-controller has partially lost connection to
the API server.
This error is frequently caused by one of the following problems:
The API server is overloaded, which causes timeouts. To verify if this is the case, check the metrics of the API server, and view its response times and overall calls.
The virt-controller pod cannot reach the API server. This is commonly caused
by DNS issues on the node and networking connectivity issues.
Node-related actions, such as starting and migrating, and scheduling virtual machines, are delayed. Running workloads are not affected, but reporting their current status might be delayed.
Set the NAMESPACE environment variable:
$ export NAMESPACE="$(kubectl get kubevirt -A -o custom-columns="":.metadata.namespace)"
List the available virt-controller pods:
$ kubectl get pods -n $NAMESPACE -l=kubevirt.io=virt-controller
Check the virt-controller logs for error messages when connecting to the
API server:
$ kubectl logs -n $NAMESPACE <virt-controller>
If the virt-controller pod cannot connect to the API server, delete the pod
to force a restart:
$ kubectl delete -n $NAMESPACE <virt-controller>
