How to set a predefined password for the core user in Red Hat OpenShift Container Platform 4.x utilizing ACM siteconfig

Solution Verified - Updated -

Issue

  • Customers need the ability to set a password for the core user at install time to better enable troubleshooting and investigation of cluster installation failures.
  • The feature exists to manually inject into ignition files but customers need to know how to implement this indirectly when utilizing Advanced Cluster Management / ZTP via siteconfig.yaml

Environment

  • Red Hat OpenShift Container Platform
    • 4.x
  • Advanced Cluster Management
    • 2.9.2 (observed and confirmed on this version, but this works with all ZTP versions.)
