Troubleshoot credentials creation

If the Credentials object is in the Error or Invalid state, verify whether the provided credentials are valid and adjust them accordingly.

To adjust the Credentials object:

1. Verify the Credentials object status:

   kubectl --kubeconfig <pathToKindKubeconfig> \
   get <providerName>credentials <credentialsObjectName> -o jsonpath='{.status.valid}{"\n"}'
   

   Replace <providerName> with the name of the selected provider. For example, openstackcredentials or vspherecredentials.

2. Open the Credentials object for editing:

   kubectl --kubeconfig <pathToKindKubeconfig> \
   edit <providerName>credentials <credentialsObjectName>
   

3. Adjust the credentials password:

   1. In password.secret.name of the Credentials object spec section, obtain the related Secret object.

   2. Replace the existing base64-encoded string of the related secret with a new one containing the adjusted password:

      apiVersion: v1
      kind: Secret
      data:
        value: Zm9vYmFyCg==
