Overview of IBM Spectrum Protect Plus container deployment
IBM Spectrum® Protect Plus can be installed on a Red Hat® OpenShift® cluster environment. The installation process uses the IBM Spectrum Protect Plus operator, which deploys and manages all the IBM Spectrum Protect Plus components on Red Hat OpenShift.
The IBM Spectrum Protect Plus operator is a Docker image that uses Ansible® Operator technology. The image contains the Kubernetes configuration files that are necessary to deploy and upgrade IBM Spectrum Protect Plus.
If you plan to install IBM Spectrum Protect Plus in the IBM Cloud Pak® for Multicloud Management environment, you must use the IBM Spectrum Protect Plus operator for IBM Cloud Pak for Multicloud Management. The operator also works in environments that do not have IBM Cloud Pak for Multicloud Management installed.
