System Requirements
Before enabling Portworx Fusion Controller, ensure that your cluster meets the following requirements:
- Have Portworx Enterprise version 3.6.0 or later installed.
- Have Operator version 26.1.0 or later installed.
- Have Portworx CSI version 26.1.1 or later installed.
- Supports deployment of KubeVirt VMs.
- Run OpenShift version 4.18.7 or later.
- A Fusion Coordinator endpoint and valid LDAP credentials for the Coordinator available.
Limitations
Enabling Portworx Fusion Controller in your Portworx cluster includes the following limitations:
- Supports creating KubeVirt VMs only using data volume templates.
- Does not support attaching an existing
PersistentVolumeClaimto a VM. - Does not support hot-plugging volumes into running VMs.
- Does not support an ActiveCluster setup.
- Does not support secure multi-tenancy (realms).
- Does not support FlashArray pods.
- Does not support using different Fusion preset (that is, the different Fusion-backed
StorageClass) for different disks in the same VM. All disks within a VM must reference the sameStorageClass. - When adding a new disk to an existing VM, the disk must use the same Fusion-backed
StorageClassas the existing disks. If you attempt to use a differentStorageClass, the operation is rejected. - Fusion-backed
StorageClassobjects are not supported for use with container workloads such asDeploymentsorStatefulSets. - In mixed deployments that use both Fusion-managed and non-Fusion volumes, Portworx Fusion Controller supports only the storage protocols that are already configured and available. Portworx Fusion Controller does not extend or modify protocol support in such environments.
