ZZ00379: INFOCENTER HAS TO BE UPDATED WITH /OPT REQUIREMENT FOR INSTALLATION

IBM Cloud Orchestrator Fix Pack 3 (2.4.0.3) for 2.4

APAR status

• Closed as documentation error.

Error description

• Disk planning considerations:
  
  
      The specified hard disk space is the minimum free space
  required on
  the machine before the IBM Cloud Orchestrator installation. Be
  sure
  that there is sufficient space for the required partitions.
      For the Deployment Service node, additional disk space
  (about 14
  GB) is required to store the IBM Cloud Orchestrator packages. If
  you
  plan to install IBM Cloud Orchestrator as highly available, you
  need 40
  GB to store all of the IBM Cloud Orchestrator packages,
  including the
  additional high-availability packages.
  
  so really the 5GB is not enough and we know that.
  
  on this page we instruct the user to expand all the install
  media at
  /opt/ico_install:
  
  https://www-01.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/SS4KMC_2.4.0.2/co
  m.ibm.sc
  o.doc_2.4/t_prepare_install_media.html
  

Local fix

Problem summary

• DOC summary specifying amount of disk space
  required to install ICO was misleading and hard to read
  ****************************************************************
  * USERS AFFECTED: All installations of ICO 2.4
  ****************************************************************
  * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION:
  The minimum disk space was listed in the matrix with
  additional notes
  stating to add more if using /opt and more if attempting HA
  installation.
  
  ****************************************************************
  

Problem conclusion

• Matrix was updated to show the minimum and the recommended in
  brackets and a *, underneath the matrix the * is explained as
  the recommended amount of disk space required and why its this
  value.
  This change will ensure that customers find the disk space
  requirements for ICO 2.4 easier to read and the documentation is
  less likely to cause issues from lack of clarity
