Deploying RHEL 8.6 images in UEFI mode failed when using the ironic-python-agent, because the ironic-python-agent service did not understand the RHEL 8.6 UEFI boot loader hint file. With this update, you can now deploy RHEL 8.6 in UEFI mode.
Tested and verified with rhosp-director-images-minimal-16.2-20221103.2.el8ost.noarch.rpm
which uses openstack-ironic-python-agent-5.0.5-2.20220204025306.el8ost.noarch.rpm
Since the problem described in this bug report should be
resolved in a recent advisory, it has been closed with a
resolution of ERRATA.

Description of problem: While scaling out our CephStorage nodes, we encountered an error during the ironic deploy phase of the overcloud-minimal image. The deploy systematically failed on all new nodes with the backtrace below available [1] and the provisioning status moved to `deploy failed` Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): Red Hat OpenStack 16.2.z3 ceph VMs based on RHEL 8.6 How reproducible: The problem is observed using the overcloud-minimal image Actual results: All activities planned in pre-production and production are frozen. Customer is asking for an urgent hotfix. Expected results: New nodes added and correctly configured as ceph nodes of Red Hat OpenStack 16.2 [1] Backtrace observed: Oct 13 05:08:53 host-10-244-20-27 ironic-python-agent[3154]: 2022-10-13 05:08:53.125 3154 ERROR ironic_python_agent.extensions.image [-] Error setting up bootloader.
