Feature Overview (aka. Goal Summary)  

(This is a user-facing capability breakout from OCPSTRAT-714)

The ability for OpenShift components to recover from expired certificates when the cluster has been shutdown or in hibernation for up to 6 months)

Goals (aka. expected user outcomes)

The observable functionality that the user now has as a result of receiving this feature. Include the anticipated primary user type/persona and which existing features, if any, will be expanded. Complete during New status.

Ability to recover self-managed OpenShift control plane from expired certificate resulting from a cluster shutdown or hibernation for 3 to 6 months.

This feature can be broken into two phases:

• Phase 1: shutdown or hibernation for up to 90 days
• Phase 2: shutdown or hibernation for up to 180 days

Requirements (aka. Acceptance Criteria):

A list of specific needs or objectives that a feature must deliver in order to be considered complete.  Be sure to include nonfunctional requirements such as security, reliability, performance, maintainability, scalability, usability, etc.  Initial completion during Refinement status.

CI-test validating self-managed OpenShift control-plane recovering automatically after cluster hibernated for up to 6 months.

Anyone reviewing this Feature needs to know which deployment configurations that the Feature will apply to (or not) once it's been completed.  Describe specific needs (or indicate N/A) for each of the following deployment scenarios. For specific configurations that are out-of-scope for a given release, ensure you provide the OCPSTRAT (for the future to be supported configuration) as well.

Use Cases (Optional):

Include use case diagrams, main success scenarios, alternative flow scenarios.  Initial completion during Refinement status.
