Missing LD_LIBRARY_PATH in Velero pod deployed by OADP operator

[phuongatemc]

Velero's LB_LIBRARY_PATH is set to "/plugins" directory so if any plugin binary needs to load additional library during execution, it can put the library there. However, Velero installed by OADP missing this environment variable and therefore fail the plugins that needs to load libraries even though the library binaries are there in the /plugins directory.

Reproduce steps:

• install OADP operator
• create simple Velero with default csi, openshift plugins (see config below)
  apiVersion: konveyor.openshift.io/v1alpha1
  kind: Velero
  metadata:
  name: example-velero
  namespace: oadp-operator
  spec:
  olm_managed: true
  use_upstream_images: true
  default_velero_plugins:
  • csi
  • openshift
    enable_restic: true

then use "exec -it " to log into Velero pod and print out all evn

#oc get pod velero-7d9cd8489b-7v5cx -n oadp-operator bash
#env | grep LD_LIBRARY_PATH
==> found nothing

@phuongatemc Thank you for reporting this. This should be a fairly easy fix. Will set LD_LIBRARY_PATH to /plugins in our velero deployment

@phuongatemc once above PR is merged just delete the oadp-operator pod and the velero deployment. This should force it to be recreated with the right env vars.
