OCPBUGS-3278 is supposed to fix the issue where the user was required to provide data about the baremetal hosts (including MAC addresses) in the install-config, even though this data is ignored.

This works when the command is:

openshift-install agent create image --dir=whatever

But fails when the argument is e.g., as in dev-scripts:

openshift-install --log-level=debug --dir=whatever agent create image
