Introduction

  • After the MX7000 chassis pair have been configured, configure the PowerFlex Management Node. 

    Note: This chapter provides the configuration details from the POC lab. The POC used a single R640 PowerFlex node to manage the cluster. We recommend moving to a three-node management cluster to provide high availability for virtual machine workloads.
