IBM Storage Scale container native

IBM Storage Scale container native allows the deployment of the cluster file system in a Red Hat® OpenShift® cluster. Using a remote mount attached file system, the container native deployment provides a persistent data store to be accessed by the applications through the IBM Storage Scale CSI driver by using Persistent Volumes (PVs). For more information, see IBM Storage Scale Container Storage Interface Driver.

Documentation for v5.2.3 points to the v5.2.3.x branch in this repository. This means all instructions in our doc remain unchanged and following the doc will always pull the latest released fix pack of the product.
