Description Daniel Dominguez 2024-02-13 16:15:07 UTC
Describe the issue:

Hello,

In our documentation [1] we specify the minimum requirements when deploying ODF in external mode, but it's not clear the minimum number of worker nodes we need in OCP when using ODF external.

I believe the minimum is two worker nodes following OCP recommendations [2] but I think clarifying this in ODF documentation is very useful for certain customers.

If you need further information, please let me know.

Thanks! Regards
