ODF 4.15 Install with IBM Flashsystem storage fails, "error: package "ibm-storage-odf-operator" not found"
Issue
-
When installing ODF with an IBM Flashsystem storage, we are creating an ODF cluster in Internal Mode where the PVs used by OSD pods are based on a new Storage Class (that we will create during the creation of the StorageSystem) that will create/allocate Volumes on the IBM FlashSystem Storage , so the disks used by OSD pods will be LUNs from the IBM FlashSystem Storage. Latest Instructions for ODF 4.15 are here: Chapter 3. Deploy OpenShift Data Foundation using IBM FlashSystem
