Have CLI support for the OpenShift provider. Support to create, teardown, add routes & query the resource (pod)

Just wanted to share my initial discovery when exploring ManageIQ & OpenShift support. You are allowed to add a container provider within ManageIQ. With this container provider added, it allows ManageIQ to collect metrics from the provider. These metrics range from pods, services, images, routes, etc.

As of now I do not see a way to deploy new applications via ManageIQ. This may be possible if we look into using automate task. (Ansible playbook using oc client). Deploying applications in OpenShift is different than deploying new virtual machines in a public/private cloud. They may seem similar but in reality they are different concepts.
