Request for MAS CLI Support for Node Labels, Taints, and Affinity during MAS Installation

I like to request an enhancement to the MAS CLI installation process that allows administrators to specify node placement parameters such as labels, taints, tolerations, and affinity rules during the deployment of a MAS instance.

Many customers use dedicated OpenShift worker pools for specific workloads, applying labels and taints to ensure workload isolation, resource management, security, and compliance requirements. Currently, deploying MAS into a dedicated worker pool may require additional manual configuration after the installation process.

My request is to provide MAS CLI parameters that allow these scheduling constraints to be defined during the execution of mas install, ensuring that all MAS components are deployed directly onto the intended worker pool.

Example of labels:

workload=masdev, environment=nonprod

Node Selector:

workload=masdev

Toleration

key: "workload"

operator: "Equal"

value: "masdev"

effect: "NoSchedule"

This capability would allow customers to deploy MAS instances directly into dedicated worker pools without requiring post-installation modifications, improving operational efficiency and alignment with OpenShift node management best practices.
