docs: document the RMS setup.sh phase (--install-rms) - #5588
Conversation
Upgrade guide gains the 5c phase, flag, and duration rows (including the no-TLS-reload restart note); the component-manager RMS page and helm-prereqs README explain the in-cluster deployment path alongside the still-supported external RMS; quick-start lists the opt-in env vars. Part of NVIDIA#5376 (PR 2; the setup.sh phase itself is NVIDIA#5475).

At this commit, helm-prereqs/setup.sh contains no --install-rms parser case, NICO_INSTALL_RMS/NICO_RMS_* handling, or phase 5c; running the documented command exits with the usage error instead of installing RMS. The implementation commit must be included in this commit's ancestry before publishing these instructions, especially because setup.sh is the repository's source of truth for setup phases and flags.

Stale — the phase, flags, and NICO_RMS_* handling are in #5475 (this PR merges after it, noted in the description), and the wording is now default-on.

Omitting --install-rms does not leave the existing RMS deployment operationally untouched. Phase 5 first renders rms.enabled=false, removing the RMS database/user and rms-db-eso declarations while the rack-manager release remains deployed. The generated database credential Secret may then be garbage-collected, leaving the retained RMS deployment unable to restart.

There was a problem hiding this comment.
The no Core config change is needed statement is only true for the default rack-manager namespace. NICO_RMS_NAMESPACE is documented as configurable, but NICo Core still uses the fixed endpoint rms-api-server.rack-manager.svc.cluster.local:8801, so a custom RMS namespace leaves Core pointing at the wrong service.
Direction change from review: RMS follows the DPF model (default-on, skip flag) instead of opt-in.

In `@docs/getting-started/quick-start.md`:
- Around line 101-103: Update the quick-start guide to consistently document
default-on RMS installation: add --skip-rms to the setup option table, add Phase
5c to the phase table, and include RMS in the deployed-components list, matching
setup.sh’s current behavior and terminology.
- Line 103: Replace the NICO_RMS_IMAGE_TAG export placeholder with a shell-safe

metacharacters, and explicitly instruct operators to replace that example with
their desired tag.
In `@docs/manuals/upgrade.md`:
- Line 22: Update docs/manuals/upgrade.md:22 to make the RMS TLS rollout restart
command use the configured NICO_RMS_NAMESPACE instead of hard-coding
rack-manager. Also update helm-prereqs/README.md:117-118 to limit the
no-config-change statement to the default namespace and document the Core
endpoint override required when using a custom RMS namespace.
- Line 205: Update the argument parsing and upgrade control flow in
helm-prereqs/setup.sh to recognize --skip-rms and NICO_SKIP_RMS, prevent the
usage/error branch from treating them as unknown options, and skip only the Rack
Manager Service (Phase 5c) while preserving all other upgrade phases and default
RMS installation behavior.

helm-prereqs/setup.sh has no RMS installation phase, NICO_RMS_* handling, or rack-manager deployment. The README currently describes an installation path that cannot run. Remove the RMS instructions, or add the documented installation and credential or image-preloading flow.
