When creating a vm from a template in OpenShift 4.14, it is possible for the dynamic ssh key injection to configure the wrong user. This occurs only when creating the VM from a template in the UI. 

This issue is triggered by configuring the sections in the "Scripts" area of the "Customize and create VM" UI screen out of order. If you first select and add the dynamic SSH key and then change the Cloud-init section, the two parts will not match up. 

4.14.1

every time

1. From the OpenShift Console, select Virtualization, then Create a new VM from template
2. Select Red Hat Enterprise Linux 9
3. Select Customize VirtualMachine
4. Select "Customize VirtualMachine parameters"
5. Select "Scripts"
6. FIRST Add an authorized SSH Key
7. NEXT Select Dynamic SSH key injection
8. FINALLY select "edit" for the Cloud-Init and change the user to "test"
9. Click Apply
10. Click "Create VirtualMachine"

You can then validate in the YAML that the template.spec.accessCredentials.sshPublicKey.propagationMethod.qemuGuestAgent.users is set to "cloud-user" and not the "test" user set in template.spec.volumes.cloudInitConfigDrive.userData

Wrong user names in the accessCredentials and CloudInitConfigDrive do not match

user names in the accessCredentials and CloudInitConfigDrive should match
