When an IngressOperator pod is restarted and there are already IngressController resources in Available or Degraded status, the ingress_controller_conditions metric is non-existent from the Operators /metrics endpoint.

Create a cluster with at least the default IngressController

Restart the Ingress Controller (it could happen if you need to force the cloud provider credentials to be updated after changing something in the IAM role)

    1.Make a cluster with the default ingress controller
    2.Perform an operation that will cause the cloud provider credential to be updated
    3.Restart the Operator pod to force the operator to use immediately the new credentials
    

The ingress_controller_conditions metric is not available.

The ingress_controller_conditions metric is available.    

This is a hypershift cluster, but I think it shouldn't matter.
