Please stand by @best-flower-46100 as I search the knowledge base. I normally take about 20 seconds or so. :wave:
---------------------- Based on the information provided in the extracts, Garden does not automatically update secrets when they are renewed. However, there are a few potential ways to handle this: 1. **Manual Update**: You can manually update the secrets in the default namespace whenever the certificate is renewed. Garden will then copy the updated secrets to the other namespaces during the next deployment. 2. **Automate Secret Update**: You can automate the process of updating the secrets whenever the certificate is renewed. This could be done using a Kubernetes operator or a script that watches for certificate renewals and updates the secrets accordingly. 3. **Workaround**: As mentioned in the Github issue (), a workaround could be to write an exec service which fetches the relevant secrets via kubectl, strips metadata and reapplies them to the deployment namespace. Please note that these are potential solutions based on the information provided in the extracts and may require additional configuration or scripting based on your specific setup. ---------------------- Note: you can ask me a follow up question by @ mentioning me again :speech_balloon: ----------------------
Let me check the knowledge base for you. One moment! :books:

@microscopic-river-74022 i tried automating secret update with kubernetes reflector but the secrets garden copied over to the other namespaces interfere with that method. can i disable garden copying?

---------------------- Based on the information provided in the extracts, the
copySecrets
directive in the Garden configuration is responsible for copying secrets from one namespace to another. If you want to disable this, you can remove or comment out the
copySecrets
directive from your Garden configuration. Here's an example of how to comment out the
copySecrets
directive:
Copy code
yaml
# providers:
# - copySecrets:
#   - name: "my-secret"
Please note that by doing this, Garden will no longer copy secrets between namespaces, and you will need to manage the copying of secrets manually or through another method like the Kubernetes reflector you mentioned. Remember to thoroughly test your configuration changes to ensure that your services continue to function as expected. ---------------------- Note: you can ask me a follow up question by @ mentioning me again :speech_balloon: ----------------------

@microscopic-river-74022 i don't have that, i only have this: tlsCertificates: - name: app-fqx-ch-cert secretRef: name: app-fqx-ch-tls

---------------------- Based on the information provided in the extracts, there is no direct way to disable the copying of secrets specified under
tlsCertificates
in the Garden configuration. The
tlsCertificates
directive is used to specify the TLS certificates that Garden should use for the specified services, and these certificates are automatically copied to the appropriate namespaces. If the automatic copying of secrets by Garden is causing issues with your Kubernetes reflector, you might need to consider a different approach for managing your secrets and certificates. For example, you could: - Use a different method for managing your certificates that doesn't conflict with Garden's secret copying. - Modify your Kubernetes reflector to ignore the secrets copied by Garden. Please note that these are general suggestions and may require additional configuration or scripting based on your specific setup. ---------------------- Note: you can ask me a follow up question by @ mentioning me again :speech_balloon: ----------------------
