RedPanda steps for running it on kubernetes using CRI-o 1.22.x or later.

[zozo6015]

The cluster is setup on a VM running on a hypervisor cluster. The hypervisors need the ability to pass the CPU flags like SSE4.2 that it is required by redpanda. The new versions of cri-o (1.22 or newer) it is better to use full image instead of short version like ‘docker.io/vectorized/redpanda’ otherwise it wil end up looking for the image on quay.io where it is not. Operator needs the support of imagePullSecret which I kind of hacked it by editing the statefullset and putting it in there. And needed to add fs.aio-max-nr=1048576 to sysctl.conf.
