OCM Status Addon

The OCM Status Addon is a status reporting add-on for Open Cluster Management (OCM). It enables KubeStellar to collect and report the status of workloads running on managed clusters back to the hub (the KubeStellar ITS).

How It Works

The OCM Status Addon consists of two roles packaged in a single container image:

• Controller — runs in the OCM hub (the KubeStellar ITS). Manages the lifecycle of the agent on each managed cluster.
• Agent — runs on each managed cluster (WEC). Watches workload resources and reports their status back to the hub.

Relationship to KubeStellar

The OCM Status Addon is deployed automatically when an ITS (Inventory and Transport Space) is created via the Core Helm chart. It is a required component for status reporting in the legacy KubeStellar architecture.
