Administering and configuring storage in IBM Fusion HCI
This section discusses the administration and configuration aspects of the IBM Storage Scale storage integration to the IBM Fusion HCI offering and for the successful functioning of the IBM Fusion appliance with the storage integration.
About storage administration and configuration
The IBM Fusion appliance supports customer workloads on OpenShift® Container Platform.
IBM Fusion supports only file-based storage classes that are based on IBM Storage Scale CSI driver.
The IBM Spectrum® Storage Scale Erasure Code Edition (ECE) layer does the hardware storage aggregation of the NVMe disks that are attached to the individual compute nodes of the appliance. The CSI layer provides virtualized storage over the physical storage aggregated by the ECE for consumption by the workloads that run on OpenShift Container Platform.
