[4.8] KubeVirt Plugin not working because OpenShift Virtualization installs CRDs with v1alpha3

[jomeier]

Hi,

in OKD 4.8 nightlies we miss the side menu "Workloads -> Virtualization" in the Web Console if OpenShift Virtualization is installed. I think there is a problem with the Web Console.

This properly works with OKD 4.7 but seems to be a problem with latest 4.8 nightlies.

So I assume it's also a problem in OpenShift 4.8.

An answer in https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1971188 says that a few weeks ago a change was introduced that the web console only shows CRDs with version v1:

8c55c7a

Introduced the problem.

OpenShift Virtualization from the Red Hat Operatorhub catalog (Version 2.6.5, current version) still installs CRDs with v1alpha3. KubeVirt resources like VirtualMachine won't be shown in the Web Console.

Could you revert that, please @yaacov VirtualMachines CRs with version v1alpha3 will not work after an upgrade to OCP 4.8. This will confuse users a lot.

Thanks and greetings,

Josef

Correct me if I'm wrong, but this seems to have regressed in 4.10. I am able to see the Virtualization tab if I use the image quay.io/openshift/origin-console:4.9 but not if I use quay.io/openshift/origin-console:4.10.
