VMAX3 Cinder Driver support for SRDF/Metro
Hi,
I have a customer who wants to use IBM PowerVC to automate provisioning of PowerVM LPARs in a SRDF/Metro environment where the PowerHA cluster is stretched across 2 sites (within synchronous distance). The latest IBM PowerVC release 1.3.2 is actually running Openstack Otaca under the hood, but the VMAX Cinder driver for Otaca shows support for only SRDF/S:
Are there plans for the VMAX Cinder driver to support SRDF/Metro?
Any workaround possible if customer wish to use PowerVC (Openstack) to provision storage for the LPARs in an active-active environment (across 2 sites)?
Also, anyone knows if PowerVC 1.3.2 even support PowerHA stretched cluster (also called PowerHA geographically dispersed cluster)?
regards,
Sam
