High: It blocks me to complete my task.

I am trying to do distributed LLM model inferencing using vllm and ray on Openshift. I tried doing this using RayService API on Openshift following this guide [Serve a Large Language Model with vLLM on Kubernetes — Ray 2.43.0](https://docs.ray.io/en/latest/cluster/kubernetes/examples/vllm-rayservice.html). However I kept running into the following issue when inspecting events:

```auto
pods "llama-3-8b-raycluster-9kkt2-head-" is forbidden: error looking up service account ray-serve/llama-3-8b-raycluster-9kkt2-oauth-proxy-3c567d11: serviceaccount "llama-3-8b-raycluster-9kkt2-oauth-proxy-3c567d11" not found

```

The serviceaccount kept automatically creates and delete immediately, even for the ones I created manually. Note this this deployment worked in vanilla kubernetes I’ve done before, just not working in Openshift. Are there any privilege settings I have to provide this deployment for this to work? Appreciate any advice on this. Thank you
