IBM FileNet P8, Version 5.2.1            

Creating an OpenStack storage device

OpenStack cloud storage devices can be associated with an advanced storage area.

Before you begin

Before you create an advanced OpenStack device, you must obtain credentials for connecting to the OpenStack object storage provider. You can create a container where the FileNet® P8 content will be stored, or you can let the wizard create the container when you create the OpenStack storage device.

Procedure

To create an OpenStack storage device:

  1. Start the New OpenStack Cloud Storage Device wizard in the administration console:
    1. In the tree view, click the Object Store > object store name to open the object store that uses the device.
    2. In the object store tree view, right-click the Administrative > Storage > Advanced Storage > Advanced Storage Devices folder and click New OpenStack Cloud Storage Device.
  2. Complete the wizard.
