Description Sinny Kumari 2020-01-30 07:18:48 UTC
Description of problem:
With Openshift 4.4 and onward release, Machine Config Operator supports switching from traditional to realtime kernel on RHCOS node. kernel switch can be performed via MachineConfig during a new cluster launch (as day 1) or on a running cluster (as day 2). It will be good to have steps documented in installer repo documentation which would work as a reference for needed users.

Version-Release number of the following components:
Installer master repo doc section https://github.com/openshift/installer/blob/master/docs/user/customization.md
