Doc Type: Bug Fix
Doc Text:
Cause: The case where a flavor is missing was improperly handled by code validation Consequence: When the user sets an in install-config a flavor that is not present in OpenStack, the error message was confusing. Fix: A flavor that is not found on Nova is now correctly reported inside the pre-flight check code. Result: When the user sets an in install-config a flavor that is not present in OpenStack, the pre-flight checks now correctly report the error.

Version:

$ openshift-install version
4.8.0-0.nightly-2021-03-18-000857
built from commit f8a81655daaa0a21c917c671f1dce9733e14c6f2
release image registry.ci.openshift.org/ocp/release@sha256:5be3b251ccd17fae881d43591dd1bebe763780f0c7e3386332722ccb2648954d


Platform:
openstack IPI

What happened?
the tenant i am working against doesn't have a certain flavor we need ci.nested.virt.m1.xlarge

and the fail message was like:
level=fatal msg=failed to fetch Master Machines: failed to load asset "Install Config": compute[0].platform.openstack.type: Invalid value: "": Flavor did not meet the following minimum requirements: Must have minimum of 8 GB RAM, had 0 GB; Must have minimum of 2 VCPUs, had 0; Must have minimum of 25 GB Disk, had 0 GB

which is not clear on my opinion; 
it should be something like the flavor: "<FLAVOR NAME>" doesn't exist in your tenant ..
