Description Zane Bitter 2020-10-12 17:49:22 UTC
After creating a baremetal IPI cluster, there is a script to fetch the hardware details for the master nodes from Ironic on the bootstrap host and populate it into the BareMetalHost objects in the cluster. It is essential that this script complete successfully, otherwise the Machine objects will not get IP addresses assigned and thus TLS certificates cannot be issued for them (see bug 1801238). However, currently the installer does not wait for this script to complete before declaring success. While the script is run in a loop until it succeeds, if this has not happened by the time bootkube is complete the installer will destroy the bootstrap node (and all evidence along with it) and exit professing that the cluster is working.

In addition, due to a typo in the fix for bug 1798498, even if installation were to fail the logs for this script are not available.
