[BUG]: Powerscale csi driver while connecting smarconnect zone name first letter is getting truncated.

[anurajpd]

Bug Description

The smartconnect zone name of my cluster is powerscale1.vdi.xtremio and the csi driver failed to connect to the array. CSI controller logs shows it's trying to connect to owerscale1.vdi.xtremio, the first letter is getting truncated. This issue happens only if the name starts with 'p'. CSI driver got successfully connected after the smartconnect name is changed to isilon1.vdi.xtremio.

Powerscale Version: 9.4.0.0

@anurajpd, can you share the first lines of the start of the container ?

Also, what happens if you put endpoint: powerscale1.vdi.xtremio (i.e. remove scheme) ?

Thx.

[anurajpd]

after removing the schema its picking up the proper name, please see the below logs

-------------------------- GOISILON HTTP REQUEST -------------------------
GET /platform/latest/ HTTP/1.1
Host: powerscale1.vdi.xtremio:8080

But, as per the document configuring endpoint with the https schema is also valid and in that case also only if it starts with 'p' is the problem.

[coulof]

The doc might be wrong or apply to CSM Authorization only @nitesh3108 to confirm/infirm/fix ;-)

Thanks @anurajpd for pointing the issue. Small tinkering work is done and PR is up to handle this. Documentation is right no changes there.

[nitesh3108]

@anurajpd PR is merged, you may test the same using latest nightly build.
