Add an option for etcdclusters which, if enabled, puts all existing etcdmembers to sleep instead of deleting all but one.
Disabled by default so that the standard behavior remains unchanged.

This is useful when migrating etcdclusters back and forth between different K8s clusters where the storage is already replicated to the other side. On the source cluster the etcd instances need to be put to sleep as their storage becomes read-only. This deletes 2 out of 3 replicas which need to be rebuilt uppon startup on the deestination cluster. This means that 2 volumes are replicated for nothing and if anything bad happens to the remaining replica, recovery becomes more complicated (restore from previous backup).

One thing I am not 100% sure about is if there could be a risk for quorum loss in certain cases. It didn't happen during my testing but that doesn't mean it's impossible.

Summary by CodeRabbit

• New Features
  • Added an option to preserve cluster members and their storage when scaling a cluster to zero. Preserved members are marked dormant.
• Bug Fixes
  • Clusters with preservation enabled now retain all existing members when scaled down to zero instead of deleting them.

Walkthrough

EtcdCluster adds the optional preserveMembersOnSleep setting, defaulting to false. When enabled, scale-down to zero marks selected members dormant instead of deleting them. A controller test checks that members remain present and have no deletion timestamps.

Changes: Member preservation on sleep

Layer / File(s)	Summary
Preservation option contract api/v1alpha2/etcdcluster_types.go, charts/etcd-operator/crd-bases/etcd-operator.cozystack.io_etcdclusters.yaml	The API type and CRD schema add preserveMembersOnSleep, an optional boolean that defaults to false. The field description states that enabling it preserves EtcdMember resources and PVCs by marking existing members dormant when the cluster sleeps.
Dormant member handling controllers/etcdcluster_controller.go, controllers/etcdcluster_controller_test.go	At zero replicas, scaleDown marks the selected member dormant when one member remains or preservation is enabled. Otherwise, it deletes the selected member as before. Reconcile logs “Putting etcdmember to sleep” under the same zero-replica conditions. The test checks that repeated calls process members newest-first, set them dormant, and do not set deletion timestamps.

Merge Risk: Moderate · up to 9b6aa

Preserved clusters may fail to resume at a smaller size, and changing the option during sleep can delete storage intended to be retained. Resolve these behaviors before merging.

Explanation

The title "feat(etcdclusters): Option to preserve etcdmembers on sleep" matches the main change. The PR adds the optional spec.preserveMembersOnSleep field. When enabled, scaling to zero marks existing members dormant instead of deleting all but one. The title is short, specific, and follows conventional-commit style. It names the feature and the component it affects.

Check that unprocessed members remain active.

The test can pass if the first call makes both test-2 and test-1 dormant. That can cause an additional pod to stop earlier than intended.

Latch PreserveMembersOnSleep in Status.Observed.

During a 3→0 transition, a true-to-false edit after one member becomes dormant can make scaleDown delete another member and its PVC. This violates the locked-target behavior; documenting the live read would not prevent the deletion.

Add the flag to the observed snapshot and comparison, and use the observed value throughout the transition.

Restore quorum before resuming to a smaller target.

If three voters sleep with PreserveMembersOnSleep enabled and the target becomes one, the controller wakes only one voter. The other two remain dormant in etcd membership, so the waking voter cannot regain quorum. Reconciliation can reach DeadlineExceeded without making the cluster available. Handle the preserved membership before converging to the smaller target.
