Storage Configuration

Parameter	Description	Default	Optional/Mandatory
InstanceCount	The number of initial storage instances in the cluster.	3 (the smallest cluster is 3 and the largest is 16).	Mandatory
InstanceType	The type of storage instance to deploy*.	i3en.6xlarge	Mandatory
KeyName	The name of the EC2 key pair that exists in the account (used to access the storage instances and Exporter instances; i.e., the session manager).		Mandatory
S3ConfBucketName	The S3 bucket name (not ARN). This is the user bucket with R/W permission used by the CF to store the cluster configuration.**		Mandatory

*Supported instance types for the cluster are I3en storage class instances and i4i storage class instances (specific instance types of instances in each class). The selected instance type will determine the storage, network, and CPU configuration of the instance during the deployment and will impact the performance, capacity, and throughput of the storage cluster.
**Each new created deployment stack will automatically generate a folder in this provided bucket. The name of the folder will include StackName in it (you can use the same bucket for multiple cluster deployments).

Note that currently, only a local bucket (e.g., a bucket in the same region as the cluster) is supported.
