第7章 Infrastructure requirements


7.1. Platform requirements

Red Hat OpenShift Data Foundation 4.14 is supported only on OpenShift Container Platform version 4.14 and its next minor versions.

Bug fixes for previous version of Red Hat OpenShift Data Foundation will be released as bug fix versions. For more details, see the Red Hat OpenShift Container Platform Life Cycle Policy.

For external cluster subscription requirements, see the Red Hat Knowledgebase article OpenShift Data Foundation Subscription Guide.

For a complete list of supported platform versions, see the Red Hat OpenShift Data Foundation Supportability and Interoperability Checker.

7.1.1. Amazon EC2

Supports internal Red Hat OpenShift Data Foundation clusters only.

An Internal cluster must meet both the storage device requirements and have a storage class that provides EBS storage via the aws-ebs provisioner.

OpenShift Data Foundation supports gp2-csi and gp3-csi drivers that were introduced by Amazon Web Services (AWS). These drivers offer better storage expansion capabilities and a reduced monthly price point (gp3-csi). You can now select the new drivers when selecting your storage class. In case a high throughput is required, gp3-csi is recommended to be used when deploying OpenShift Data Foundation.

If you need a high input/output operation per second (IOPS), the recommended EC2 instance types are D2 or D3.

7.1.2. Bare Metal

Supports internal clusters and consuming external clusters.

An internal cluster must meet both the storage device requirements and have a storage class that provide local SSD (NVMe/SATA/SAS, SAN) via the Local Storage Operator.

7.1.3. VMware vSphere

Supports internal clusters and consuming external clusters.

Recommended versions:

  • vSphere 6.7, Update 2 or later
  • vSphere 7.0 or later.

For more details, see the VMware vSphere infrastructure requirements.

注記

If VMware ESXi does not recognize its devices as flash, mark them as flash devices. Before Red Hat OpenShift Data Foundation deployment, refer to Mark Storage Devices as Flash.

Additionally, an Internal cluster must meet both the storage device requirements and have a storage class providing either,

  • vSAN or VMFS datastore via the vsphere-volume provisioner, or
  • VMDK, RDM, or DirectPath storage devices via the Local Storage Operator.

7.1.4. Microsoft Azure

Supports internal Red Hat OpenShift Data Foundation clusters only.

An internal cluster must meet both the storage device requirements and have a storage class that provides an azure disk via the azure-disk provisioner.

7.1.5. Google Cloud Platform

Supports internal Red Hat OpenShift Data Foundation clusters only.

An internal cluster must meet both the storage device requirements and have a storage class that provides a GCE Persistent Disk via the gce-pd provisioner.

7.1.6. Red Hat OpenStack Platform [Technology Preview]

Supports internal Red Hat OpenShift Data Foundation clusters and consuming external clusters.

An internal cluster must meet both the storage device requirements and have a storage class that provides a standard disk via the Cinder provisioner.

7.1.7. IBM Power

Supports internal Red Hat OpenShift Data Foundation clusters and consuming external clusters.

An Internal cluster must meet both the storage device requirements and have a storage class providing local SSD (NVMe/SATA/SAS, SAN) via the Local Storage Operator.

7.1.8. IBM Z and IBM® LinuxONE

Supports internal Red Hat OpenShift Data Foundation clusters. Also, supports external mode where Red Hat Ceph Storage is running on x86.

An Internal cluster must meet both the storage device requirements and have a storage class providing local SSD (NVMe/SATA/SAS, SAN) via the Local Storage Operator.
