Thank you for the report.
Due to the no feedback from a long time on requested details we are closing this bug. Please report a new bug with the repeatable test case, if you are still able to reproduce the issue.

Hi
is the operator meant to manage certificate expiration, and re-issue when required ?
In the case of cert-manager deployment certificates will be re-issue automatically
are the certificates meant to be necessary to connect from the backup pod to the pxc pod ?
Yes, the operator runs an additional pod and this pod should be able to connect to the cluster.
why did the restore pod not have the same connection issues as the backup pod ?
In the case of restoration, we do not have any additional pods in the cluster.

Some more information - I was able to perform a restore from backup - so it is only backup pods that can't connect to the pxc pod.
Also I discovered that the issue with the backup pod connecting to the pxc pod was due to a certificate expired error reported in the pcx logs container.
2023-04-09T09:35:25.061830Z 0 [Warning] [MY-000000] [Galera] Handshake failed: sslv3 alert certificate expired
Since this was a staging database, I tried deleting the xtradb-ssl and xtradb-ssl-internal secrets (my cluster name is xtradb) hoping that the operator would re-issue them, however it just started working without the secrets, and the backup is now working fine.
So a couple of questions arise from this
is the operator meant to manage certificate expiration, and re-issue when required ?
are the certificates meant to be necessary to connect from the backup pod to the pxc pod ?
why did the restore pod not have the same connection issues as the backup pod ?
Anyway, I'm glad to at least have a workaround if I was to face this issue in production
Cheers
Cameron

, We need to have your CR and log from the logs container as well. As I can see you have a full cluster crush and your backup pod can't connect to your pxc-0 pod.

i've added the logs for the 'pcx' container of the pcx-0 pod as well

The backup was working but is now failing.
I havn't made any changes to the configuration so I don't know how to resolve, apart from re-creating the cluster. Any hints ?
