The Image Registry Operator installs a single instance of the OpenShift image registry, and manages all registry configuration, including setting up registry storage.
After the control plane deploys in the management cluster, the Operator creates a default configs.imageregistry.operator.openshift.io
resource instance based on configuration detected in the cluster.
If insufficient information is available to define a complete configs.imageregistry.operator.openshift.io
resource, the incomplete resource is defined and the Operator updates the resource status with information about what is missing.
