      When configuring an agent-based installation using the openshift-baremetal-install binary, the installer would erroneously attempt to verify the libvirt network interfaces. This could result in an error of the form 'Platform.BareMetal.externalBridge: Invalid value: "baremetal": could not find interface "baremetal"'. The agent installation method does not require libvirt, so this erroneous validation has been disabled.

    Description

      This is a clone of issue OCPBUGS-30941. The following is the description of the original issue:
      —
      In 4.15 when the agent installer is run using the openshift-baremetal-installer binary using an install-config containing platform data, it attempts to contact libvirt to validate the provisioning network interfaces for the bootstrap VM. This should never happen, as the agent installer doesn't use the bootstrap VM.

      It is possible that users in the process of converting from baremetal IPI to the agent installer might run into this issue, since they would already be using the openshift-baremetal-installer binary.
