Ceph: Using custom Lifecycle Policy schedule (rgw_lifecycle_work_time) may cause Lifecycle processing to stall.
Issue
Using custom Lifecycle (LC) Policy schedule (rgw_lifecycle_work_time) may cause Lifecycle (LC) processing to stall.
When a customer sets rgw_lifecycle_work_time so that the LC starts later than 00:00 and the execution window traverses 00:00 (midnight), the LC will not work.
This is best shown by examples:
The LC will work if rgw_lifecycle_work_time is set like these examples:
00:00-23:59
01:00-07:00
18:00-23:59
The LC may not work if rgw_lifecycle_work_time is set like these examples:
04:00-03:59
18:00-05:45
