Redis Master/Replica will not start on Openshift 4.x #13

Bug

Description

I'm currently trying to deploy ArgoCD on an Openshift 4.17 cluster. The redis-bb master/replica pods will not start due to permissions issues.

It looks like there's an issue with Openshift's SCC defaults, which assigns a random UID/GID for the container user. The containerSecurityContext values for master and replica are not passing to the deployed StatefulSet:

    spec:
      affinity:
        podAntiAffinity:
          preferredDuringSchedulingIgnoredDuringExecution:
          - podAffinityTerm:
              labelSelector:
                matchLabels:
                  app.kubernetes.io/component: master
                  app.kubernetes.io/instance: argocd-argocd
                  app.kubernetes.io/name: redis-bb
              topologyKey: kubernetes.io/hostname
            weight: 1
      automountServiceAccountToken: false
      containers:
      - args:
        - -c
        - /opt/bitnami/scripts/start-scripts/start-master.sh
        command:
        - /bin/bash
      .
      .
      .
        securityContext:
          allowPrivilegeEscalation: false
          capabilities:
            drop:
            - ALL
          readOnlyRootFilesystem: true
          runAsNonRoot: true
          seccompProfile:
            type: RuntimeDefault

Here's the pertinent section in my values.yaml:

addons:
  argocd:
    enabled: true
    values:
      openshift:
        enabled: true

Redis container logs show the startup script invoking the redis-server binary, but getting a "not found" error:

uid=1000780000(1000780000) gid=0(root) groups=0(root),1000780000
/opt/bitnami/scripts/start-scripts/start-master.sh: line 14: exec: redis-server: not found

NOTE: I modified the argocd-argocd-redis-bb-scripts ConfigMap to also run id for debugging purposes.

The directory where redis-server resides requires UID or GID of 1001 to r/x:

[redis@4da5862373af ~]$ ls -la /opt/bitnami |grep redis
drwxr-x--- 6 redis redis 4096 Dec  9 23:53 redis
[redis@4da5862373af ~]$ cat /etc/passwd |grep redis
redis:x:1001:1001::/home/redis:/sbin/nologin

But currently, the user has UID/GID that cannot execute the binary.
