+= Agent service failures and agents not joining the cluster
+
+In some cases, agents might fail to join the cluster after booting the machines with the boot artifacts. You can confirm this issue by checking the `agent.service` logs for the following error:
+
+----
+Error: copying system image from manifest list: Source image rejected: A signature was required, but no signature exists
+----
+
+[NOTE]
+====
+This issue occurs because image signature verification fails when no signature is present.
+As a workaround, you can disable signature verification by modifying the container policy.
+====
+
+.Procedure
+
+. Add the `ignitionConfigOverride` field in the `InfraEnv` manifest to override the `/etc/containers/policy.json` file. This disables signature verification for container images.
+
+. Replace the base64-encoded content in the `ignitionConfigOverride` with the required `/etc/containers/policy.json` configuration according to your image registries.
