Note:

The "Legacy OpenStack Reference" section contains versions which are now considered End Of Life by OpenStack. These documents will no longer be updated by Everpure after a release is identified as "End of Life".

OpenStack only supports SafeMode from Release 2024.2. If using an older version and SafeMode has been enabled on a FlashArray accessed by OpenStack, the default protection group for the array must be disabled.

Backend Storage QoS for NVMe volumes requires Purity//FA 6.8.1 as a minimum.

Synchronous replication for NVMe volumes is not currently supported.

This page is a collection of best practices, tips, hints, integration points, and discussion for folks building out OpenStack environments with Everpure.
