In total, at least 3 disks are required:
sda - minimum 60 GB for system
sdb - minimum 60 GB for LocalVolumeProvisioner
sdc - for Ceph OSD
For the default storage schema, see Operations Guide: Default host system storage
Only one PXE port per node is allowed. OOB management (IPMI) port is not included.
Adding more than 3 nodes to a management or regional cluster is not supported.
A management cluster requires 2 volumes for Container Cloud (total 50 GB) and 5 volumes for StackLight (total 60 GB). A managed cluster requires 5 volumes for StackLight.
Three manager nodes for HA and three worker storage
nodes for a minimal Ceph cluster. For more details about Ceph
requirements, see Ceph.
