Providing a method to change the host name and IP after building OCP.

I understand we cannot change host name and IP of nodes after building OCP. My request is providing a method to change the host name and IP after building OCP.

This is how we are trying to build OCP production environment in my client's use case.
First, we build OCP in a non-production environment.
Second, we move the cluster to production environment by changing host name and IP.

Some may wonder this way but this is the Japanese traditional operation style. I'm sure many other customers in Japan have similar use cases.

    When we buy CP4A as K8s runtime, how we can submit RFE for OCP?

    From Red Hat team, we are told that we should submit RFE to CP4A (even it is for OEM part of CP4A) when we choose to buy CP4A as a k8s Runtime.

    This requirement seems that it is more for OpenShift Red Hat than for Cloud Pak for Applications.
