Epic Goal*

Serving OpenShift release signatures via Cincinnati. This is followup to the OTA-908 epic. In OTA-908 we are focused with respect to the disconnected use case and this epic focuses on getting the same feature working in the hosted OSUS.

Why is this important? (mandatory)

Serving OpenShift release signatures via Cincinnati would allow us to have a single service for update related metadata, namely a Cincinnati deployment on the local network, which the CVO will be configured to poll. This would make restricted/disconnected-network updates easier, by reducing the amount of pre-update cluster adjustments (no more need to create signature ConfigMaps in each cluster being updated).

Scenarios (mandatory)

Current customer workflows like signature ConfigMap creation and ConfigMap application would no longer be required. Instead, cluster-version operators in restricted/disconnected-networks could fetch the signature data from the local OpenShift Update Service (Cincinnati).

Dependencies (internal and external) (mandatory)

The oc-mirror team will need to review/approve oc-mirror changes to take advantage of the new functionality for customers using {{oc-mirror} workflows.

Contributing Teams(and contacts) (mandatory) 

Our expectation is that teams would modify the list below to fit the epic. Some epics may not need all the default groups but what is included here should accurately reflect who will be involved in delivering the epic.

• Development - 
• Documentation -
• QE - 
• PX - 
• Others -

Acceptance Criteria (optional)

Provide some (testable) examples of how we will know if we have achieved the epic goal.  

Drawbacks or Risk (optional)

Reasons we should consider NOT doing this such as: limited audience for the feature, feature will be superseded by other work that is planned, resulting feature will introduce substantial administrative complexity or user confusion, etc.

Done - Checklist (mandatory)

The following points apply to all epics and are what the OpenShift team believes are the minimum set of criteria that epics should meet for us to consider them potentially shippable. We request that epic owners modify this list to reflect the work to be completed in order to produce something that is potentially shippable.

• CI Testing - Tests are merged and completing successfully
• Documentation - Content development is complete.
• QE - Test scenarios are written and executed successfully.
• Technical Enablement - Slides are complete (if requested by PLM)
• Other
