Changes

Agent QE OVE job

Layer / File(s)	Summary
Configure the bare-metal OVE job ci-operator/config/openshift-eng/agent-qe-infra/...release-4.22__amd64-nightly.yaml	Adds the baremetal-ove-compact periodic job with intranet capability, an every-other-month schedule, OVE agent ISO settings, IPv4 environment settings, cluster health validation, and the agent-qe-baremetal-install-ove-disconnected workflow.

Estimated code review effort: 2 (Simple) | ~10 minutes

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to 86213

The added job is configured as connected but invokes the disconnected OVE workflow, so it may not perform the intended connected installation. The workflow reference should be corrected before merge.

Linked Issues check	✅ Passed	Check skipped because no linked issues were found for this pull request.
Out of Scope Changes check	✅ Passed	Check skipped because no linked issues were found for this pull request.
Stable And Deterministic Test Names	✅ Passed	The diff adds only YAML CI target and Prow job configuration; it adds no Ginkgo It(), Describe(), Context(), or When() test titles.
Test Structure And Quality	✅ Passed	The PR changes only CI YAML and generated Prow YAML; it adds no Ginkgo test code or It blocks, so the stated test-quality check is inapplicable.

Select the connected OVE workflow.

Line 874 sets DISCONNECTED: "false", but Line 883 selects agent-qe-baremetal-install-ove-disconnected. The supplied workflow definition in ci-operator/step-registry/agent-qe/baremetal/install/ove/disconnected/agent-qe-baremetal-install-ove-disconnected-workflow.yaml sets DISCONNECTED: "true" and runs disconnected installation steps. This conflicts with the PR objective to add a connected job. Replace Line 883 with the connected OVE workflow reference, or make the job consistently disconnected.
