      With the Intel recovery automation and 4 node support work it's becoming more common to require a baremetal UPI cluster for testing purposes.

      E.g: https://issues.redhat.com/browse/ETCD-658

      For the above context we should have an "easy" or tested workflow for the team to install or access a baremetal cluster setup with the assisted-installer.
      https://docs.redhat.com/en/documentation/assisted_installer_for_openshift_container_platform/2024/html/installing_openshift_container_platform_with_the_assisted_installer/about-ai

      One option would be to provision our own baremetal hosts via a provider like equinix or IBM cloud and try the install ourselves.

      We can also explore tools from other teams e.g https://github.com/redhat-performance/jetlag/blob/main/docs/deploy-bm-scalelab.md which also leverage the assisted-installer to see if that's any easier.
