Description

The NCP operator has made significant improvements in the installation process. One pending step that is still manual (if setting up a private registry is not desired) is copying the NCP image to all nodes and then podman loading them. One possible way to make this process easier is to enable the NCP operator to fetch the image on a web server provided during installation. This would enable users to easily upload the image to a single place and have the NCP operator fetch it and distribute to the nodes.

Research direction

No files, tests, or entry points are named. Start by reviewing the operator's installation path and the current manual image-copy and podman-load workflow. Done means users can provide a web-server image location during installation and the operator fetches and distributes the NCP image to all nodes.
