Experiment: Test Red Hat Hardened core-runtime Image (release-acm-212)

[gparvin]

Purpose

This is an experimental PR against the inactive release-acm-212 application to test Red Hat's hardened images.

Changes

• Switch runtime base image from ubi9/ubi-minimal
• To: registry.access.redhat.com/hi/core-runtime:latest-openssl-fips
• Modified file: Containerfile.operator

Details

Component: observatorium
Target Release: release-2.12 (inactive)
Hardened Image: core-runtime with FIPS-enabled OpenSSL

Why This Component?

• Clean Dockerfile - only copies binaries
• No package manager usage detected
• Good candidate for hardened image compatibility testing

Testing

• Target: Inactive release-acm-212 Konflux application
• Goal: Validate Konflux build success with hardened images
• Focus: FIPS compliance, runtime compatibility
• Reference: https://images.redhat.com/

Notes

• This is for experimentation only
• Not intended for merge to active releases
• Monitoring Konflux build pipeline for compatibility
• Part of systematic testing across ACM 2.12 components
