The error originates here when a conflict occurs. When that happens, the config object returned is non-nil but empty which is why the log statement appears to be missing fields.

Test report

The problem seems to be fixed in latest available version of AKS operator rancher-aks-operator:104.3.0+up1.9.3-rc.1 on rancher v2.9-43c67f5d91757836c8fa732be35c6171d89759c1-head.

Reproducer

• provision AKS from rancher with default values
• via Edit Config in Rancher add a NP to the AKS cluster with unsupported value for Max Pods per node = 1 (minimal allowed is 10)
• open and watch aks operator logs
• wait for RESPONSE 400: 400 Bad Request\nERROR CODE: InsufficientMaxPods
• Edit the cluster again and remove the problematic new NP and watch logs, something like this will appear:

time="2024-10-02T13:24:06Z" level=error msg="Error recording akscc [ (id: )] failure message: Operation cannot be fulfilled on aksclusterconfigs.aks.cattle.io \"c-6nz9j\": the object has been modified; please apply your changes to the latest version and try again"
time="2024-10-02T13:24:07Z" level=info msg="Checking configuration for cluster [th-aks292 (id: c-6nz9j)]"
time="2024-10-02T13:24:09Z" level=info msg="Configuration for cluster [th-aks292 (id: c-6nz9j)] was verified"

AFTER
When doing the same on fixed version the error is not present anymore:
