Release Note Not Required
Description of problem:
Currently we document how to install OpenShift in disconnected environments and how to mirror the images. But images for certain components outside of OCP core come from registries like `registry.redhat.io` that starting with RHEL 9 require image signatures. There is no documented process to mirror those signatures, which causes issues. Those issues are currently solved disabling signature checking (see MGMT-13934). That results in a potentially insecure setup. It would be better to provide a documented process to explain how to also mirror the signatures.
Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
Detected in OpenShift 4.13 with RHCOS 9.2 because it includes a `policy.json` file that requires image signatures for `registry.redhat.io` and `registry.access.redhat.com`.
How reproducible:
Always.
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Create a mirror of the OpenShift images as described in the documentation. 2. Add to the mirror the images required for ACM and assisted installer.
Actual results:
The cluster installation fails to pull some of the assisted installer images that come from `registry.redhat.io` because the signature can't be verified, and therefore the cluster installation fails.
Expected results:
The images from `registry.redhat.io` are pulled from the mirror and the signatures are verified using some kind of mirror.
Additional info:
Note that the solution for that is currently to disable signature verification, see OCPBUGS-10421. The request here is to avoid having to do that modification to the policy, and instead ask customers to also mirror the signatures, if that is even possible.
