5.Install the Red Hat OADP operator.
cpd-cli oadp install 
--component oadp-operator 
--namespace oadp-operator 
--oadp-version v1.4.4 
--log-level trace 
--velero-cpu-limit 2

--cpdbr-velero-plugin-image "icr.io/cpopen/cpd/cpdbr-velero-plugin:5.2.2" 
--extra-custom-plugins "db2u-velero-plugin=icr.io/db2u/db2u-velero-plugin:5.2.2" 
--verbose

The velero pod fails with ImagePullBackOff error in air-gapped cluster in pulling the image "icr.io/cpopen/cpfs/cpfs-oadp-plugins:4.10.0".

Resolving The Problem

IBM Software Hub 5.2.x Backup & Restore is validated using "cpfs-oadp-plugins:4.10.0", which is the default plugin image version used by the tooling. It needs to be mirrored manually to the private registry.

1. Save the image "icr.io/cpopen/cpfs/cpfs-oadp-plugins:4.10.0" using the command:

cpd-cli manage save-image --from=icr.io/cpopen/cpfs/cpfs-oadp-plugins:4.10.0

2. Transfer the compressed file to a client workstation and place it in the work/offline directory.
icr.io_cpopen_cpfs_cpfs-oadp-plugins_4.10.0.tar.gz

3. Copy the relevant image to the private container registry using the command:

cpd-cli manage copy-image --from=icr.io/cpopen/cpd/k8s-storage-perf:${VERSION} --to=${PRIVATE_REGISTRY_LOCATION}/cpopen/cpfs/cpfs-oadp-plugins:4.10.0.tar.gz

Refer to Moving images for cpd-cli plug-ins to a private container registry for detailed instructions and command sample.
