Deploying a software management resource group enables you to install and configure PowerFlex components on a set of nodes where an existing operating system is already installed.
Prerequisites
Ensure the following:
A software catalog is installed in
PowerFlex Manager.
A compatibility file is installed in
PowerFlex Manager.
For the initial deployment of PowerFlex storage, a minimum of three nodes is required.
The deployment checklist for software management is complete, because these prerequisites are the basis upon which filtering is carried out.
About this task
IP addresses are already configured on software management nodes. When a resource group is deployed, the IP addresses that are found on the software management nodes are reserved within the appropriate PowerFlex networks that were created and added to the template.
If you are deploying a
PowerFlex storage-only node or a
PowerFlex hyperconverged node where an
MDM cluster is created, an IP address is reserved from your networks as a virtual IP address.
