Created attachment 1814432 [details]
Pods remain in an Error state

Version:
OSP: RHOS-16.1-RHEL-8-20210604.n.0
OCP: OCP 4.9.0-0.nightly-2021-08-07-175228.


Platform:
OpenShift on OpenStack with all of the network types (OpenshiftSDN, Kuryr, and OVN-Kubernetes).


Installation type:
IPI + UPI


Description:
The OCP installation is reported as successful but some pods remain in ERROR status, and the pods are staying in this state.
The issue reproduces ~once out of three attempts, and not always for the same pods.
Examples of pods in an error state after OCP installation - 
>openshift-operator-lifecycle-manager               collect-profiles-27147450-287fp
>openshift-kube-apiserver                           installer-7-ostest-77pc4-master-0
>openshift-image-registry                           image-pruner-1628899200-w4jx5
>openshift-kube-controller-manager                  revision-pruner-4-ostest-zjjz9-master-2

Attached info and logs.


Expectation:
OCP installation will finish without any pod in an error state.


Reproduce:
The issue reproduces ~once out of three OCP installations attempts.


Additional information:
The issue was also reproduced on OCP versions 4.6 and 4.8.

Removing the Triaged keyword because:
* the target release value is missing

* the QE automation assessment (flag qe_test_coverage) is missing
