OpenShift 4.6.16 doesn't work as well as 4.6.17. Topology search fails (and the pod is in CrashLoopBackoff). Is there a known good version of OpenShift that I can install on that will allow all the pods to run correctly when run on vSphere 6.7 with Installer Provisioned Infrastructure?
So far I've tried the following OpenShift versions:
4.6.16 - topology search doesn't work (there's no healthcron pod, so I'm assuming it worked)
4.6.17 - topology search works, but the healthcron pod can't be created
4.6.23 - too unstable to even install Watson AI Ops
4.7- topology search doesn't work

Thanks for the reply, Mario. It turns out that the OpenShift version is the problem. I have reinstalled at OpenShift 4.6.17 and now topology search works (and the topology-search pod stays alive). However, it looks like I should have installed OpenShift 4.6.16 to avoid another problem. Thanks again for the reply.

Watson AIOps 2.0 Event Manager installed on OpenShift 4.7.
The topology-search and topology-merge pods keep restarting and can be seen in a CrashLoopBackoff state. Why I found this is when I go to Topology from NOI, I get an error:
(Critical Failed to connect to the Search Service. The application configuration may be incorrect, or the ASM backend services may not be running.)
That's why I looked at the status of the pods. These two pods have restarted 47 times since I installed NOI 2 hours ago.
Any pointers? Running 'oc describe pod <pod_name>' doesn't show any errors. There is a warning that neither pod can get to the healtcheck URL, but that's the only error.
