Feature Overview (aka. Goal Summary):

This feature will enable the use of OpenShift instances on Z hardware as data-plane in a HyperShift environment with an x86 control-plane.

Requirements (aka. Acceptance Criteria):

• The feature must allow an x86 control plane and a Z data-plane to be used together in a HyperShift environment.
• The feature must provide documentation on how to set up and use the x86 control plane with a Z data-plane in a HyperShift environment.
• The feature must be tested and verified to work reliably and securely in a production environment.

Customer Considerations:

Customers who require a mix of x86 control plane and Z data-plane for their HyperShift environment will benefit from this feature.

Documentation Considerations:

• Documentation should include clear instructions on how to set up and use the x86 control plane with a Z data-plane in a HyperShift environment.
• Documentation will live on docs.openshift.com

Interoperability Considerations:

This feature should not impact other OpenShift layered products and versions in the portfolio.
