Hello @bigg01,

This was fixed in Trident 20.07.1 release with this fix 051294a

Once you upgrade to 20.07.1, it will replace the service account and with a new one, in this process I believe it will remove all those 12K secrets associated with the old service account.

Also want to add that this issue has been observed on a few specific OCP versions and not all the OCP versions.

Thank you for the fast replay. I will test the new Version.
