Epic Goal

• Officially support 'me-central-1' Dubai AWS region for OCP before the end of Q4 2022.
• make available in a patch stream of 4.11, eg: 4.11.z so that Service Delivery can make the region available for OSD/ROSA customers.

Why is this important?

• This region is not part of the officially supported regions in AWS for OCP and users/customers are looking to deploy OCP in this region
• This is driven by request from our AWS partners for ROSA/OSD as well. The timeline (before end of September 2022) is driven by AWS and our SD org.

Scenarios

1. As a user, I want the OpenShift Installer to list 'me-central-1' region so that I can deploy OCP on that region using IPI or UPI workflows

Acceptance Criteria

• CI - MUST be running successfully with tests automated
• The OpenShift Installer is able to list the region for the user to select
• The region is included as a supported region in the documentation
