IBM Spectrum Fusion install validation

By HEMALATHA B T posted Fri January 21, 2022 08:29 AM

  
IBM Spectrum Fusion is a factory-integrated hyper-converged infrastructure appliance is installed in three steps.
  • Network Configuration
  • Initial Configuration
  • Final Configuration
Refer to the IBM Spectrum Fusion installation blog for more information about IBM Spectrum Fusion installation.

This document is to help users to validate the IBM Spectrum Fusion installation at each step.

Network configuration validation:
See the following image for Network configuration successful completion:


The provisioner node is configured with IPV4. You can connect to the provisioner node from an external network.

Initial configuration validation:
See the following image for initial configuration installation completion:

  1.  All pods on ibm-spectrum-fusion-ns are healthy. See the following snippet:

  5. All CRs created on IBM Spectrum Fusion namespace (ibm-spectrum-fusion-ns) are healthy. See the following image:
  6. The external operators are installed and they are healthy. The installed external operators are seen in the following snippet: 
        grafana
    elasticsearch
    cluster-logging
    oadp
    nmstate
  7. Config Maps are created in the IBM Spectrum Fusion namespace. See the following snippet:

Final configuration validation:
This is the Final configuration completion. See the following image: 
  1. Click "Done" on the final configuration to launch the IBM Spectrum Fusion dashboard. Ensure that all the components are healthy (Green) on the dashboard. See the following image:  
  2. IBM Spectrum Scale Dashboard should show that the System health is green. Navigate to the Storage console from the IBM Spectrum Fusion dashboard main menu. See the following image:
  3.  IBM Spectrum Protect Plus Dashboard should show that the System health is green. Navigate to the IBM Spectrum Protect Plus console from the IBM Spectrum Fusion dashboard main menu. See the following image:
  4. The IBM Spectrum Protect Plus dashboard should be used to validate the backup SLA policies setup for the IBM Spectrum Fusion rack. See the following image:
    In this manner, you can validate installation on the IBM Spectrum Fusion appliance.
