If the user provides some static network configuration for the hosts, this will be re-validated by assisted-service during the pre-flights validations. This is not required, and it could cause an issue if the nmstate version used by the user (on the host) is different from the one shipped within the agent-installer-api-server image.

    4.16.0

    1.
    2.
    3.
    

    In case of mismatch, the installation may be stopped, and a validation failure is reported in output (when monitored via the openshift-install agent wait-for install-complete command)

    If the initial validations performed during the openshift-install agent create image are fine for the provided static network configuration, then the installation should proceed as expected

    It looks like that this code is not really required https://github.com/openshift/assisted-service/blob/a03cd2cc1da5defe4faaff3217f785622b20dbbd/cmd/agentbasedinstaller/register.go#L163 and the cause of the problem, so it could be removed
