Epic Goal

As an OpenShift hub cluster / ACM administrator, I want to deploy bare metal clusters from a hub cluster running on ARO or Azure.

Acceptance Criteria

• Bare metal worker nodes can be deployed from a hub cluster running ACM in the Central Infrastructure Management workflow as a day 2 operation from AWS.
• It is possible to interact with the Metal3 BaremetalHost API to provision baremetal hosts from a non-baremetal controlplane
• CI - MUST be running successfully with tests automated
• Release Technical Enablement - Provide necessary release enablement details and documents.

Notes

• The Cluster Baremetal Operator is available when deploying a OpeShift cluster on the OpenStack, vSphere, and "none" platforms.
• METAL-421 enables Azure
• Need setup with a VPN from Azure to on-prem (to Red Hat labs with bare metal nodes)
• The team at American Family offered to set it up (rnix@redhat.com) and will provide more insights and findings.
