Preface

Prerequisites

• Red Hat OpenShift Container Platform version 3.11 is deployed.
• At least four gigabytes of memory are available in the OpenShift environment.
• The OpenShift Ansible Broker is installed and started in the OpenShift environment.
• The OpenShift project for the deployment has been created.

• You are logged in to the project using the OpenShift web console and using the oc command.

  • Administrator access is required if Red Hat Process Automation Manager 7.5 image streams are not already available in the OpenShift enfironment.

• Dynamic persistent volume (PV) provisioning is enabled. Alternatively, if dynamic PV provisioning is not enabled, enough persistent volumes must be available. By default, the following sizes are required:

  • Each deployed replicated set of Process Server pods, by default, requires one 1Gi PV for the database. You can change the database PV size in the playbook parameters. You can deploy multiple immutable servers; each requires a separate database PV. This requirement does not apply if you use an external database server.
  • By default, Business Central requires one 1Gi PV. You can change the PV size for Business Central persistent storage in the playbook parameters.
  • Business Central Monitoring requires one 64Mi PV.
  • Smart Router requires one 64Mi PV.

• If you intend to scale any of the Business Central or Business Central Monitoring pods, your OpenShift environment supports persistent volumes with ReadWriteMany mode.

  Important

  ReadWriteMany mode is not supported on OpenShift Online and OpenShift Dedicated.
