Describe the issue: The section "3.2. Creating an OpenShift Data Foundation Cluster for external IBM FlashSystem storage" in the External Mode doc[1] is not complete in the sense that it doesn't give all the needed details for anyone to understand what is expected from this deployment.
Describe the task you were trying to accomplish:
- I was trying to understand the difference wrt to External ceph and Internal mode deployment
I was trying to understand what all pods will be available after the deployment.
Suggestions for improvement:
- Add some details at the beginning to help the reader understand what external IBM flashsystem deployment means and how it works.
- In the deployment procedure section, point 4 says
--------------------------------
i. Enter a name for the storage class.
When creating block storage persistent volumes, select the storage class
<storage_class_name> for best performance. The storage class allows direct I/O
path to the FlashSystem.
--------------------------------
Not sure if "<storage_class_name>" needs to be replaced with the correct name. As a reader, I am expecting that but I am not sure what is technically correct here.
- The list of pods in the section "Verification Steps" is not complete. I expect a lot many more pods to be created after storgesystem creation done in the previous step.
