      Before this update, the `ironic-inspector` container did not have the correct permissions to access the shared volume and save the `ramdisk` logs. As a consequence, this made it impossible to troubleshoot any issue on the ironic agent side. With this release, the shared volume is accessible, and the `ramdisk` logs can be saved. (link:https://issues.redhat.com/browse/OCPBUGS-63417[OCPBUGS-63417])
