# Automation with GitOps

PerfectScale Automation can be seamlessly integrated with GitOps solutions such as ArgoCD and Flux. However, to avoid any potential issues due to different configurations, we recommend reviewing the documentation below.

## Certificates regeneration loop

In the Autoscaler Helm chart, certificate generation occurs whenever ArgoCD executes the helm template. This process may lead to temporary outages of the Autoscaler due to the caBundle and the certificates/keys being out of sync. To prevent this issue, we recommend generating a static caBundle and certs using the following instructions.

### How to generate static Certs for Autoscaler

To create a static certificate, follow a few simple steps:

1. Generate Certs using the usual helm template command.

{% hint style="info" %}
The certificate is valid for 1825 days.
{% endhint %}

```
helm template -n perfectscale psc-autoscaler perfectscale/psc-autoscaler > psc-autoscaler.yaml
```

2. Get Ca Certs from the generated template.

```
cat psc-autoscaler.yaml | grep caBundle | head -n 1 | awk '{print $NF}'

## ArgoCD ignore diffs

If you use ArgoCD with Autosync enabled, you may encounter issues with the Autoscaler. Automation changes resources at the pod level without affecting the parent resources spec (Deployment, StatefulSet, etc.), so ArgoCD doesn't detect any changes and will not attempt to revert them. For a better understanding of the situation, Autoscaler makes minor patches to the parent resources by adding two annotations:

```yaml
  annotations:
    automation.perfectscale.io/originatingRevision: ...
    automation.perfectscale.io/restartedAt: ...
```

This might lead to pod restarts. If Autoscaler is not in a *healthy* state at this time, the applied recommendations might be missed.

To ignore these annotations in ArgoCD, configure the ignoreDifferences key at the installation level by adding it to the `argocd-cm` ConfigMap. In our patches, we utilize the Manager field, so you can seamlessly exclude it by specifying our manager name, `PerfectScaleAutoscaler`.

```yaml
data:
  resource.customizations.ignoreDifferences.all: |
    managedFieldsManagers:
      - PerfectScaleAutoscaler
```

Or by adding the following configuration to your ArgoCD App manifest:

```yaml
spec:
  ignoreDifferences:
  - group: "*"
    kind: "*"
    managedFieldsManagers:
      - PerfectScaleAutoscaler
```
