1. The deployment of the regulated workload instance starts automatically and you receive confirmation that the order is being processed. You can check the deployment status, including any issues that might require your attention, by viewing the Deployment history tab of the instance details.
2. When the instance is successfully deployed, the ordered components are installed on your VMware virtual platform.
After your storage resource is created, you can access the allowed_host_info attribute, which contains the username, password, and the IQN of the compute host that are needed later.

For more information about the arguments and attributes, see [ibm_storage_block](https://registry.terraform.io/providers/IBM-Cloud/ibm/latest/docs/resources/storage_block).





 Step 1: Install the iSCSI and multipath utilities 

Ensure that your system is updated and includes the open-iscsi and multipath-tools packages. Use the following commands to install the packages.



* Install open-iscsi.

sudo apt install open-iscsi

When the package is installed, it creates the following two files.



* /etc/iscsi/iscsid.conf
* /etc/iscsi/initiatorname.iscsi



* Install multipath-tools.

sudo apt install multipath-tools

If you want to boot from the LUN, then the multipath-tools-boot package needs to be installed as well.







 Step 2: Set up the multipath 



1. After you installed the multipath utility, create an empty configuration file that is called /etc/multipath.conf.
2. Modify the default values of /etc/multipath.conf.

On Windows systems, there is a maximum path length, which is exceeded when you try to install all of the dependencies in a deep level folder.

 How to fix it 

You can fix this problem in one of the following ways:



* Ensure that you have installed the correct version of Node.js. For more information, see [Installing the Developer Toolkit](https://cloud.ibm.com/docs/apiconnect?topic=apiconnect-creating_apis).
* If you had to upgrade a program, try the installation again.



If that does not work, install API Connect at a level higher than the likely C:/program files/nodejs/bin/node_modules... folder. If you install at a top-level directory, you will not see this error.





 Unable to install the developer toolkit on Mac OS X 

After you provision the API Connect service, you try to install the developer toolkit and the installation fails.

 What’s happening 

The following errors are displayed during the developer toolkit installation:

Agreeing to the Xcode/iOS license requires admin
privileges, please re-run as root via sudo

 Why it’s happening 

You recently upgraded or installed Xcode and have not agreed to the license yet.

 How to fix it 



1. Enter the following command to validate your Xcode license:



sudo xcode-select



2. Reinstall the developer toolkit.







 Unable to install the developer toolkit on Ubuntu 

After you provision the API Connect service, you try to install the developer toolkit and the installation fails.

 What’s happening 

The following errors are displayed during the developer toolkit installation:

sqlite3@3.1.1 install /usr/local/lib/node_modules/strong-pm/node_modules/minkelite/node_modules/sqlite3
node-pre-gyp install --fallback-to-build

npm WARN This failure might be due to the use of legacy binary "node"
Boot your system to install the ISO.
6. After Red Hat CoreOS is booted into memory, set up network connections so you can provide the location ignition file and attach the server to your location.
7. Download the ignition script for your Satellite location.

ibmcloud sat host attach --location <location_name> --operating-system RHCOS
8. Edit your ignition file to include the bare metal host name and network information. For more information about adding these details, see [Configuring your ignition file](https://cloud.ibm.com/docs/satellite?topic=satellite-assign-bare-metalconfig-ignition). Note that you must edit the ignition file for each bare metal server that you want to attach to your location.
9. Put your ignition file in a location that your bare metal server can reach. For example, you can upload it to an IBM Cloud Object Storage bucket.
10. Download the ignition script to your bare metal server.

curl <ignition_file_location > ignition.ign
11. Run the following install command to start the ignition file. Replace <diskName> with the full path of the disk location where you want Red Hat CoreOS installed and replace <filename> with the path of the ignition file.

sudo coreos-installer install <diskName> --ignition-file <filename>

The installation process can take an hour or two to complete.
12. After the installation completes, unplug your RHCOS ISO file and reboot from your hard disk.
13. Check your Satellite location to confirm that your bare metal server is attached.
14. Repeat these steps for each bare metal host that you want to attach to your location.







 Step 2: Assigning a Bare Metal Server host to your Red Hat OpenShift cluster 

After your Bare Metal Server is attached to your location, you can assign it to a Red Hat OpenShift cluster worker pool.



1. Find the hosts to add to your Red Hat OpenShift cluster worker pool.

ibmcloud sat hosts --location <locationID>
2.
* Install the AD features on the server using the Install-WindowsFeature command.
* Configures the AD forest. The WinThreshold value configures a Windows Server 2016 forest with the domain name of <Domain_Name>. e.g. sqlserver.test and <NB_Domain> e.g. sqlserver. Create a password for <Safe_Mode_Admin_Password> that adheres with your standards. The server restarts and DNS is configured, including setting DNS resolvers to be 161.26.0.10 and 161.26.0.11 (as the virtual server network interfaces was already configured with these DNS servers).



$domainfull = "<Domain_Name>"
$domainnb = "<NB_Domain>"
$smpassword = "<Safe_Mode_Admin_Password>"
Install-WindowsFeature AD-Domain-Services -IncludeManagementTools
Install-ADDSForest -CreateDnsDelegation:$false -DatabasePath “C:WindowsNTDS” -DomainMode “WinThreshold” -DomainName $domainfull -DomainNetbiosName $domainnb -ForestMode “WinThreshold” -InstallDns:$true -LogPath “C:WindowsNTDS” -NoRebootOnCompletion:$false -SysvolPath “C:WindowsSYSVOL” -SafeModeAdministratorPassword (ConvertTo-SecureString $smpassword -AsPlainText -Force)-Force:$true





 Create groups and users 

The following Powershell commands create a new AD group called SQL Admins, and a new user sqluser1 with a password of <Password> added to the SQL Admins group. The suffix is the suffix of your domain name e.g. com or local:

$password = "<Password>"
$domainnb = "<NB_Domain>"
$dnssuffix = "<suffix>"
$path = "CN=Users,DC=" + $domainnb + ",DC=" + $dnssuffix

* Instances that are provisioned with placement group strategies do not work with dedicated hosts.
* After an instance is placed, the assigned placement of that instance does not change based on placement of other instances.
* After an instance is started, the associated placement group strategy can't be changed.
* Instances can't be removed from a placement group or assigned to a different placement group. Instances must be deleted to remove the instance from the placement group.
* If you define a placement group for an instance, the instance provision fails if the placement can't be completed according to the defined placement group strategy.
* If an instance fails to provision due to lack of capacity, the instance placement is not automatically retried. You can stop and then start the instance to retry provisioning.

Set up environments, feature flags, and properties 

Use feature flags to enable or disable a feature in your application code. You can also manage the properties for distributed applications centrally.



  Environments 

Environments in App Configuration represent your application environments. Typical environments might be dev, staging, or production. Environments manage your feature flags and properties to various deployments from development to production. For more information, see [Environments](https://cloud.ibm.com/docs/app-configuration?topic=app-configuration-ac-environments).





  Feature flags 

Separate code delivery from feature enablement. Dark launch feature code in the application to a set of target users. For more information, see [feature flags](https://cloud.ibm.com/docs/app-configuration?topic=app-configuration-ac-feature-flags).





  Properties 

Configure and manage properties for distributed applications and environments centrally in one place. For more information, see [Properties](https://cloud.ibm.com/docs/app-configuration?topic=app-configuration-ac-properties).
[Control plane in normal state](https://cloud.ibm.com/docs-content/v1/content/fcee192e52fce225776143bc6ccc3a023d1d193a/databases-for-etcd/includes/cloud-databases/includes/cloud-databases/images/cp-normal.png)

Figure 1. Control plane in normal state

Attempting to provision a database instance into a location without a running Control plane (that is, Normal state), causes provisioning to fail.







 Step 4: Provisioning ICD Satellite Deployment 

You can provision your ICD Satellite Deployment by selecting the Satellite location that you created in the Location menu of the provisioning page. For more information, see the relevant [Provisioning documentation](https://cloud.ibm.com/docs/cloud-databases?topic=cloud-databases-provisioning) for your ICD Satellite deployment. After you create a new service instance, this instance will appear in the IBM Cloud Resource List as Provisioned.

When you deploy the first database service instance, a service cluster is automatically deployed into your Satellite location. The deployment of the service cluster can take up to 1 hour.

You can verify in the IBM Cloud UI whether the service cluster is already created:



* From the left Navigation menu, select Satellite, then Locations.
* Select your Satellite location.
* Select Services



After the service cluster is created, you must create a storage assignment manually (see next step)before the database instance will be started. Subsequent database service instances provision more quickly since instances land on the same service cluster.





 Create a Storage Assignment 

When the service cluster is available in your Satellite location, the next step is to create a Satellite storage assignment. Creating the storage assignment allows the service cluster to create volumes on the previously configured storage.

The first database you provision into a location remains "Provision In Progress" until this step is complete.

For more information, see [AWS EBS IBM Cloud Satellite documentation](https://cloud.ibm.com/docs/satellite?topic=satellite-config-storage-ebs).
File Storage for Classic that was provisioned before a data center upgrade can't be encrypted. New File Storage for Classic that was provisioned in upgraded data centers is automatically encrypted. It's automatic, not a provisioning setting that can be selected or left out. Data on nonencrypted storage can be encrypted by creating a new volume, then copying the data to the new encrypted volume with host-based migration. For more information, see [Migrating File Storage for Classic](https://cloud.ibm.com/docs/FileStorage?topic=FileStorage-migratestorage).
* How do I know whether I'm provisioning File Storage for Classic in an upgraded data center?

In the File Storage for Classic order form, all upgraded data centers are denoted with an asterisk (). During the ordering process, you're given an indication that you're provisioning storage with encryption. When the storage is provisioned, you can see an icon in the storage list that shows that volume as encrypted.

All encrypted volumes and file shares are provisioned in upgraded data centers only. You can find a full list of upgraded data centers and available features [here](https://cloud.ibm.com/docs/FileStorage?topic=FileStorage-selectDC).
* How can I find the correct mount point for my File Storage for Classic?

All encrypted File Storage for Classic volumes that are provisioned in the enhanced data centers have a different mount point than nonencrypted volumes. To ensure that you're using the correct mount point, view the mount point information in the Volume Details page in the UI. You can also access the correct mount point through an API call: SoftLayer_Network_Storage::getNetworkMountAddress().
* How many volumes can I provision?

By default, you can provision a combined total of 700 Block and File Storage for Classic volumes. To increase your limit, contact your sales representative. For more information, see [Managing storage limits](https://cloud.ibm.com/docs/FileStorage?topic=FileStorage-managinglimits).

 Why it’s happening 

You don't have the required rights to create files or directories.

 How to fix it 

Change the rights for the specified directories, or run the command using sudo.

On a local development system, it is better to fix the directory rights as follows:

sudo chown -R $USER /usr/local

This command makes your user account the owner of the /usr/local directory. Then, you will not need to use sudo to install Node or install packages globally with npm. Note: Changing directory ownership is appropriate only on a local development system. Never do this on a server system.

Also, do not use the previous chown command on the /usr/bin directory; doing so can seriously misconfigure your system.

If you have to use sudo, use the following command:

sudo npm install -g --unsafe-perm install apiconnect





 Unable to install the developer toolkit on Windows 

After you provision the API Connect service, you try to install the developer toolkit and the installation fails.

 What’s happening 

You are trying to install the developer toolkit on Windows and you receive an error message that states your path should be less than 248 characters.

 Why it’s happening 

On Windows systems, there is a maximum path length, which is exceeded when you try to install all of the dependencies in a deep level folder.

 How to fix it 

You can fix this problem in one of the following ways:



* Ensure that you have installed the correct version of Node.js. For more information, see [Installing the Developer Toolkit](https://cloud.ibm.com/docs/apiconnect?topic=apiconnect-creating_apis).
* If you had to upgrade a program, try the installation again.
