      Based on explanation of field folder, looks like folder name should be ok. If it is not allowed to use folder name, need to validate the folder and update explain.

       

      sh-4.4$ ./openshift-install explain installconfig.platform.vsphere.failureDomains.topology.folder
      KIND:     InstallConfig
      VERSION:  v1RESOURCE: <string>
        folder is the name or inventory path of the folder in which the virtual machine is created/located.
