If you’re upgrading your node operating systems from RHEL/CentOS 8.3 to 8.4, you must disable the nm-cloud-setup service before upgrading or installing Runtime Fabric with the latest install scripts. To disable nm-cloud-setup, run the following on each node:

cat > disable_nm_cloud.sh << 'EOF'
#!/bin/bash

function perform_os_specific_operations() {
    set +e
    if [[ "$ID_LIKE" == *"fedora"* ]] && [[ $VERSION_ID == 8.4 ]]; then
        echo "Disabling nm-cloud-setup service on RHEL 8.4"
        systemctl disable nm-cloud-setup.service nm-cloud-setup.timer
        systemctl stop nm-cloud-setup.service nm-cloud-setup.timer
        echo "Removing ip rule prio 30400 on RHEL 8.4"
        ip rule del prio 30400
        if [[ -d "/etc/systemd/system/nm-cloud-setup.service.d" ]]; then
            rm -rf /etc/systemd/system/nm-cloud-setup.service.d
        fi
        echo "Restarting NetworkManager.service on RHEL 8.4"
        systemctl restart NetworkManager.service
    fi
