This section details the deployment design for Red Hat OpenShift cluster on the vSphere environment using the Assisted Installer. In this solution, the OpenShift cluster is deployed on virtual machines that reside in the PowerFlex compute-only nodes, that are set as a two-layer configuration with PowerFlex storage-only nodes.
This solution can also be deployed on PowerFlex hyperconverged architecture, however discussion about the pros and cons of such a design for OpenShift applications is beyond the scope of this document.
