Cause

Edge cases for the status were not handled. For example, occasionally a k8s event was not sent when something changes on the cluster.

Resolution

Resolution:
Engineering provided a fix in CSM Operator patch 1.4.3 by adding additional checks to safeguard against missing events on the daemon set, deployment, and pods.
