Warning

Rate limit exceeded

@jechen0648 has exceeded the limit for the number of commits that can be reviewed per hour. Please wait 37 minutes and 52 seconds before requesting another review.

To keep reviews running without waiting, you can enable usage-based add-on for your organization. This allows additional reviews beyond the hourly cap. Account admins can enable it under billing.

⌛ How to resolve this issue?

After the wait time has elapsed, a review can be triggered using the @coderabbitai review command as a PR comment. Alternatively, push new commits to this PR.

We recommend that you space out your commits to avoid hitting the rate limit.

🚦 How do rate limits work?

CodeRabbit enforces hourly rate limits for each developer per organization.

Our paid plans have higher rate limits than the trial, open-source and free plans. In all cases, we re-allow further reviews after a brief timeout.

Please see our FAQ for further information.

Walkthrough

A new serial E2E test job for bare-metal OVN dual-stack BGP with local gateway and EVPN is added across four OpenShift OVN-Kubernetes configuration files. The job is configured as optional and non-always-run, targeting Equinix metal with specific environment variables and workflow parameters.

Changes

Cohort / File(s)	Summary
OVN-Kubernetes Test Job Configuration ci-operator/config/openshift/ovn-kubernetes/openshift-ovn-kubernetes-master.yaml, openshift-ovn-kubernetes-release-4.22.yaml, openshift-ovn-kubernetes-release-4.23.yaml, openshift-ovn-kubernetes-release-5.0.yaml	Added new test job e2e-metal-ipi-ovn-dualstack-bgp-local-gw-evpn-serial configured with TechPreviewNoUpgrade feature set, FRR image 10.4.1, serial conformance suite, intranet capability requirement, and baremetalds-e2e-ovn-bgp-dualstack-local-gw workflow execution on equinix-ocp-metal.

Stable And Deterministic Test Names	✅ Passed	PR only modifies CI configuration YAML files and does not contain any Ginkgo test code changes.
Test Structure And Quality	✅ Passed	The custom check for Test Structure and Quality is not applicable to this PR as it only modifies CI/CD configuration YAML files, not Ginkgo test implementations.
Microshift Test Compatibility	✅ Passed	This PR does not add new Ginkgo e2e tests; changes are purely CI configuration in YAML files that define how existing test workflows should be scheduled and executed.
Single Node Openshift (Sno) Test Compatibility	✅ Passed	PR modifies only CI operator configuration files (YAML) and does not add any new Ginkgo e2e test code.
Topology-Aware Scheduling Compatibility	✅ Passed	PR adds CI test job configurations, not deployment manifests or operator code that would affect cluster topology-aware scheduling.
Ote Binary Stdout Contract	✅ Passed	PR modifies only YAML CI/CD configuration files, adding a new test job definition with no executable source code or process-level code.
Ipv6 And Disconnected Network Test Compatibility	✅ Passed	PR only modifies CI-operator YAML configuration files defining test job configs, not actual Ginkgo test code with It(), Describe(), Context(), When() statements.
