Can you deploy hcs-openshift-install?
A set of Ansible plays and roles to automate an OpenShift 4.x UPI install (both OKD and OCP), and configure it afterwards. Supported installation methods: HP ILO bare-metal, VMWare VCenter, LibVirt, and Grub magic (replace an existing RHEL machine), and generic ISO. The configuration can either be performed in a "legacy" way, by creating objects directly on the cluster, or by setting up the OpenShift GitOps Operator, and creating content for a configuration git repository.

Open-source code removes a licence fee, not operational responsibility. Confirm maintenance, hosting, backups, upgrades, security, and support before depending on it.
