When deploying EDPM with TLS-e enabled, the Dataplane Operator generates the required cert secrets at the time of deployment. However, even after the cert secrets are created, the operator experiences prolonged delays as the created cert secrets are not checked immediately. This delay increases with the number of compute nodes, as set of secrets are created for each compute, causing a slowdown in the initial deployment process.

Ex: Though the cert secret has been created and its been 10 minutes, osdpd still throws error.
[kni@provisioner ~]$ oc get osdpd
