Bug 1978647

1. Proposed title of this feature request
[RFE] Podman secrets for RHEL 8.4


2. What is the nature and description of the request?
RFE for podman 3.1 which has secrets functionality for RHEL 8.4


3. Why does the customer need this? (List the business requirements here)
Prevent leaking of sensitive credentials on RHEL VM's with deployed containers: some applications in containers that we deploy with podman require sensitive files to be in plain-text (e.g. certificates and keys) and podman's secrets functionality enables those to be securely stored within podman and not a container or filesystem.


4. How would the customer like to achieve this? (List the functional requirements here)
From Development's point of view: ideally as a Red Hat supported/certified package (I believe these are RPM's) that can be installed to an actual RHEL 8 VM (e.g. not a RedHat Certified Image containing podman itself).


5. For each functional requirement listed, specify how Red Hat and the customer can test to confirm the requirement is successfully implemented.
podman secrets functionality needs to be available

6. Is there already an existing RFE upstream or in Red Hat Bugzilla?
Podman secrets is available in podman 3.1 upstream version(http://docs.podman.io/en/latest/secret.html)
https://www.redhat.com/sysadmin/new-podman-secrets-command

7. Does the customer have any specific timeline dependencies and which release would they like to target (i.e. RHEL8, RHEL9)?
RHEL 8.4

8. Is the sales team involved in this request and do they have any additional input?
No

9. List any affected packages or components.
Podman

10. Would the customer be able to assist in testing this functionality if implemented?
From Customer Development's side: yes
