Headless OPS Manager deployment
Currently Ops Manager CRD deployment requires configuration using GUI which is a manual step. An option completely define all OPS Manager settings / Org in declarative manner via yaml will be great in building completely automated CI/CD Pipelines

you can achive it with OpsManager configuration settings
mms.fromEmailAddr: "test@test.com"
mms.ignoreInitialUiSetup: "true"
mms.replyToEmailAddr: "test@test.com"
mms.adminEmailAddr: "test@test.com"
mms.mail.transport: "smtps"
mms.mail.hostname: "mail.example.com"
mms.mail.port: "465" -

Totally agree. I would describe it as follows:
The OpsManager cannot be fully configured via the MongoDBOpsManager resource. There is interaction with the OpsManager API needed for:
- Initial settings wizard (mailserver, email addresses etc.)
- Backup integration
- Creation of a Organization, API keys and IP whitelisting in order to be able to create MongoDB instances for the S3 metadata storage and oplog store
- After that Create a Secret and ConfigMap with the data returned from OpsManagerProvide a k8s native way to Configure the OpsManager without any interaction towards the OpsManager API
Option 1: Provide a way to add this configuration directly in the MongoDBOpsManager resource
Option 2: Provide a way to Configure the OpsManager settings via ConfigMap

When deploying a MongoDB resource to a newly installed Operator and OpsManager the user has to
Create an Organization, API keys and IP whitelisting in OpsManager
Create a Secret and ConfigMap with the data returned from OpsManager
Specify this Configmap as "configMapRef" in the MongoDB resource.Please provide a k8s native way to deploy a MongoDB instance without any interaction towards the OpsManager API. The MongoDB Operator should create the Organization, API keys and IP whitelisting in OpsManager and create the secret and configmap.
Option 1: Create a CRD "MongoDBOpsManagerOrganization" that has a reference to a secret (containing the private key) and an IP whitelist as parameter. The MongoDB resource then references this MongoDBOpsManagerOrganization
Option 2: The MongoDB Operator automatically creates an Organization per Namespace containing MongoDB resources. The user does not need to create any Organization, API keys, IP whitelisting, Secret and ConfigMaps.
