[tewfikm]

Setup Details

FIC Version : 0.1.2
CIS Version : 2.4
FIC Build: f5networks/f5-ipam-controller:latest
CIS Build: f5networks/k8s-bigip-ctlr:latest
BIGIP Version: Big IP 15.1
AS3 Version: 3.26
Orchestration: OSCP

Description

When you use BIG-IP partition with uppercase name (let's say "OCP"), FIC throws following error :

[ipam] error while creating IPAM custom resource. F5IPAM.fic.f5.com "ipam.truncated.mycompany.local.OCP" is invalid: metadata.name: Invalid value: "ipam.truncated.mycompany.local.OCP": a lowercase RFC 1123 subdomain must consist of lower case alphanumeric characters, '-' or '.', and must start and end with an alphanumeric character

Steps To Reproduce

1. use uppercase partition name
2. create LB service type resource using IPAM

Expected Result

CIS or FIC should convert any BIG-IP partition name to lower case in order to comply with RFC 1123 rather that throwing an error.

Actual Result

FIC is throwing an error with invalid value
