- Appendix A. CR template
MSDP Scaleout CR
The CR name must be fewer than 40 characters.
The MSDP credentials stored in the Secret must match MSDP credential rules.
MSDP CR cannot be deployed in the namespace of MSDP operator. It must be in a separate namespace.
You cannot reorder the IP/FQDN list. You can update the list by appending the information.
You cannot change the storage class name.
The storage class must be backed with:
AKS: Azure disk CSI storage driver "disk.csi.azure.com"
EKS: Amazon EBS CSI driver "ebs.csi.aws.com"
You cannot change the data volume list other than for storage expansion. It is append-only and storage expansion only. Up to 16 data volumes are supported.
Like the data volumes, the catalog volume can be changed for storage expansion only.
You cannot change or expand the size of the log volume by changing the MSDP CR.
You cannot enable NBCA after the configuration.
Once KMS and the OST registration parameters set, you cannot change them.
You cannot change the core pattern.
