OKD is a community distribution around OCP. The main difference is that all images are publicly available, so they can't contain RPMs which have limited distribution scope. This is a tracking bug for all activities around promoting baremetal-installer-related images in 4.9. Currently we skip promotion for these images (https://github.com/openshift/release/blob/master/core-services/release-controller/_releases/release-ocp-4.9-ci.json#L27-L31): "ironic", "ironic-inspector", "ironic-ipa-downloader", "ironic-machine-os-downloader", Source repos should have a special OKD dockerfile, which uses RDO as a source for Ironic. See https://github.com/openshift/release/blob/576a62461b87bc991a463893cfb9c940b84da906/ci-operator/config/openshift/installer/openshift-installer-master__okd.yaml for an example of CI configuration which promotes OKD-specific build. Feel free to make e2e tests always_run: false and optional: true to avoid test matrix explosions
Assigning Riccardo for purely tracking reasons
Ready for review, OKD 4.10 nightlies should have all necessary piecies to have BM IPI
