      * Previously, the Machine Config Operator (MCO)'s vSphere `resolve-prepender` script used `systemd` directives that were incompatible with old bootimage versions used in {product-title} 4. With this release, nodes can scale using newer bootimage versions {product-version} 4.13 and above, through manual intervention, or by upgrading to a release that includes this fix.

      -----------
      This fixes a bug where the MCO's vsphere resolv-prepender script uses systemd directives that is not compatible with old bootimage versions in OCP 4. Nodes should be able to scale with either an newer bootimage version (4.13+), manual intervention, or upgrading to a release with this fix.

      This is a clone of issue OCPBUGS-38012. The following is the description of the original issue:

      Description of problem:

      Customers are unable to scale-up the OCP nodes when the initial setup is done with OCP 4.8/4.9 and then upgraded to 4.15.22/4.15.23
      
      At first customer observed that the node scale-up failed and the /etc/resolv.conf was empty on the nodes.
      As a workaround, customer copy/paste the resolv.conf content from a correct resolv.conf and then it continued with setting up the new node.
      
      However then they observed the rendered MachineConfig assembled with the 00-worker, and suspected that something can be wrong with the on-prem-resolv-prepender.service service definition.
      As a workaround, customer manually changed this service definition which helped them to scale up new nodes.

      Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

      4.15 , 4.16

      How reproducible:

      100%

      Steps to Reproduce:

      1. Install OCP vSphere IPI cluster version 4.8 or 4.9
      2. Check "on-prem-resolv-prepender.service" service definition
      3. Upgrade it to 4.15.22 or 4.15.23
      4. Check if the node scaling is working 
      5. Check "on-prem-resolv-prepender.service" service definition     

      Actual results:

      Unable to scaleup node with default service definition. After manually making changes in the service definition , scaling is working.

      Expected results:

      Node sclaing should work without making any manual changes in the service definition.

      Additional info:

      on-prem-resolv-prepender.service content on the clusters build with 4.8 / 4.9 version and then upgraded to 4.15.22 / 4.25.23 :
