CA APM 10.7 Openshift agent image pull in local Docker repository shows "Failed to pull image"

Issue/Introduction

VM running RHEL 7.2 with Docker installed. OpenShift v3.10 also installed. 
At the end of the CA APM 10.7 OpenShift Agent installation steps encountered a problem when creating the agent using the command:
oc create -f caagent-openshiftmonitor.yml
https://docops.ca.com/ca-apm/10-7/en/implementing-agents/infrastructure-agent/openshift-monitoring/install-and-configure-openshift-monitoring

The agent creation/deployment is failing due to private docker registry access problems i.e. the 2 caagent pods show ErrImagePull/"Failed to pull image" errors. Docker registry has been added to the insecure-registries on the docker daemon to fix a previous https problem but still seeing an “unauthorized: authentication required” error.

Environment

Release: APMNGM00200-10.7.0.1-Wily-Application Performance Mgmt
Component:

Cause

Appears to be docker permissions related and nothing directly related to the agent image.

Resolution

Workaround:
1. Deinstall agent using command:
oc delete -f caagent-openshiftmonitor.yml

2. Recreated agent using modified caagent-openshiftmonitor.yml file to get the image direct from the docker hub instead of local docker registry i.e. change the 2 image lines:
FROM: image: 172.30.1.1:5000/caapm/apm-openshiftmonitor:latest
TO: image: caapm/openshiftmonitor:latest
