PMM-15274: Remove "PMM updates are disabled" error toast#5848mattiasimonato wants to merge 6 commits into
Conversation
UpdatesProvider is mounted app-wide, so every admin page load fired a full update check. Where updates are turned off, pmm-managed answers that with FailedPrecondition, and the global axios interceptor turns any 4xx into an error toast. The result was a red "PMM updates are disabled" toast on unrelated pages such as Inventory, even though the hook silently recovered through its installed-version fallback. Ask only for the installed version when updates are disabled, and hold the query until settings have loaded so the two cannot race. The full check now also opts out of notifications, since the hook recovers from that failure itself.
When no update check has run, the API omits last_check. The footer fed the literal string "N/A" into new Date(), so every page rendered "Last checked: Invalid Date NaN, NaN, NaN:NaN UTC". Show the version on its own in that case.

The previous commit suppressed notifications for the whole update check, on the reasoning that the fallback recovers from it. That was too broad. Once the provider stops asking for a full check on disabled deployments, the only errors reaching this call are real ones, and the fallback hides them: it asks for the installed version, which the server answers before it ever consults the version service, so it succeeds no matter what went wrong. An air-gapped server that cannot reach the version service would have failed silently, where it used to say so. Suppress only the 400 that means updates are disabled, and let anything else through.
Holding the update check until settings were present closed a cold-load race, but it also made the check depend on that request succeeding. The query client sets retry to false and does not refetch on window focus, so a single failed settings request left the value null for the rest of the session, the check never ran, and the footer dropped the PMM version from every page. Gate on settings having settled rather than having succeeded. The race stays closed, and a failed load falls back to the previous behaviour instead of blocking forever.

grpc-gateway maps more than one gRPC code onto HTTP 400. Besides the FailedPrecondition that means updates are disabled, the same endpoint answers a rejected query parameter with InvalidArgument, also as a 400. Matching on the status alone would have swallowed that too. Check the gRPC code in the body as well, so only the disabled response stays quiet.
Ticket number: PMM-15274
Feature build: SUBMODULES-4549
When updates are turned off, PMM showed a red "PMM updates are disabled" toast on whatever page you happened to be on, for example Inventory. The UI asks the server to check for updates on every page load, even when the server is set up to refuse. The server replies with a 400, and our global error handler turns any 400 into a red toast. The UI then quietly retries and asks only for the installed version, which works, so nothing was really broken. The toast was just noise from a request we should never have sent.
The fix
Stop sending that request. When updates are disabled the UI now asks only for the installed version, which the server always answers. Nothing changes when updates are enabled.
A second commit fixes a small bug in the same spot. When no check has ever run the server sends no
last_check, and the footer printed "Last checked: Invalid Date NaN, NaN, NaN:NaN UTC" on every page. Now it just shows the version.The "Upgrades are disabled" card on the Updates page is left alone on purpose. Making that message accurate, and greying out the toggle in Settings, needs a new API field and is covered by PMM-9042.
Why this is not an HA bug
The ticket is filed under HA, but this happens whenever updates are off, and any deployment can do that, either with
PMM_ENABLE_UPDATES=0or by an admin unticking Updates in PMM Settings. There is no HA specific code anywhere in this path.HA is only where we found it, because the Helm chart used to set
PMM_ENABLE_UPDATES: "0"by default, so every HA tester ran into it. The same problem was reported on plain Docker in PMM-9042 back in 2021, before PMM had HA at all.
