Updating an existing pool

Use this procedure to update existing storage pools.

Before you begin

Ensure that you have logged into the OpenShift Container Platform web console as an administrator.

Procedure

  1. Go to Storage > Data Foundation.
  2. In the Data Foundation window, click Storage Systems.
  3. On the Storage systems tab, select the required storage system.
  4. Go to the Storage pools tab.
  5. On the Storage pools tab, click the ellipsis menu next to the pool you want to update and click Edit Pool.
  6. In the Edit Storage Pool dialog, do as follows:
    1. Change the Data protection policy to either 2-way Replication or 3-way Replication.
      Remember: The default pool does not support the 2-way replication data protection policy. However, you can use 2-way replication if you create an additional pool.
    2. Optional: Change the data compression by selecting or deselecting the Data compression checkbox.
      Important: Enabling compression can impact application performance and might prove ineffective when data to be written is already compressed or encrypted. The application does not compress the data written before enabling compression.
    3. Click Save.
