Epic Goal

• Validate E2E that Openshift can be deployed in Oracle Cloud Infrastructure using Bare Metal Machines
• This should be a QE-only job as no code changes should be required in ABI
• The E2E test will also provide feedback on the existing integration between OCP and OCI so we can use this information to update documentation and share input with the engineering teams. As an example, this exercise was done recently for the Assisted Installer E2E workflow --> https://docs.google.com/document/d/1Q6cl4yWhRV-h6P6Jqq2IIm-VjrJjbm9ImfkjVuaDG9U/edit

Why is this important?

• Before we can declare GA support for OCP on OCI with BM we need to validate that the installation tools we use for this platform work with the existing artifacts from Oracle

Scenarios

1. Deploy OpenShift on Oracle Cloud Infrastructure using VMs for the Control Plane Nodes and Bare Metal Nodes for the Compute Nodes
2. Deploy OpenShift on Oracle Cloud Infrastructure using Bare Metal Nodes for the Control Plane and Compute Nodes

Acceptance Criteria

• CI - MUST be running successfully with tests automated
• Release Technical Enablement - Provide necessary release enablement details and documents.

Previous Work:

1. ABI is already supported to deploy OpenShift on OCI with VMs
