Description of problem:
When installing with the Assisted Installer and adding the vCenter cloud credentials on day 2 there are a few issues.
When applying the config with the GUI I get a strange error message:
Error "Invalid value: "object": apiServerInternallPs list is required once set" for field "spec.platformSpec.vsphere". (I do not have permissions to attach files for some reason)
The ConfigMap cloud-provider-config in openshift-config is created with a bunch of debug garbage:
kind: ConfigMap
apiVersion: v1
metadata:
name: cloud-provider-config
namespace: openshift-config
data:

Once removing the garbage data from the ConfigMap and letting everything sync, the CSI driver complains about not being able to access the "vcenterplaceholder" cluster
log of openshift-cluster-csi-drivers/vmware-vsphere-csi-driver-operator-798667986-9s8hg:
... I0331 17:44:16.005083 1 config.go:293] ReadConfig INI succeeded. INI-based cloud-config is deprecated and will be removed in 2.0. Please use YAML based cloud-config.

The cloud-conf ConfigMap appears to be incorrect:
kind: ConfigMap
apiVersion: v1
metadata:
name: cloud-conf
namespace: openshift-cloud-controller-manager
data:
cloud.conf: |
global:
insecureFlag: true
secretName: vsphere-creds
secretNamespace: kube-system
vcenter:
vcenterplaceholder:
server: vcenterplaceholder
datacenters:
- datacenterplaceholder
vcsnsx-vc.infra.demo.redhat.com:
server: vcsnsx-vc.infra.demo.redhat.com
datacenters:
- SDDC-Datacenter
But the associated ConfigMaps openshift-config/cloud-provider-config and openshift-config-managed/kube-cloud-config appear to be synced with the one from openshift-config.
The storage CO is unhappy but cloud-controller-manager is happy:

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Install a OCP cluster with the Assisted installer with vSphere integrations
2. Once cluster is up and running, use the console to add the credentials for vCenter: https://docs.redhat.com/en/documentation/assisted_installer_for_openshift_container_platform/2025/html/installing_openshift_container_platform_with_the_assisted_installer/installing-on-vsphere#vsphere-post-installation-configuration-console_installing-on-vsphere
