PVC Storage pending installation

Hi,
I am trying to deploy the 3scale operator on an AWS Rosa cluster running OpenShift 4.11.37.
I have finished running the installation but when I check the resources tab of the API manager I see that the system-storage PVC is pending and when I check the events I see that the event message is

External provisioner is provisioning volume for claim "openshift-operators/system-storage"

Is this an issue caused by the storage size in the yaml set to 100Mi?

Does the OCP provide persistence volumes (PV) with access more RWX required by 3scale?

From https://github.com/3scale/3scale-operator/blob/master/doc/operator-user-guide.md#prerequisites

Some [Deployment Configuration Options](https://github.com/3scale/3scale-operator/blob/master/doc/operator-user-guide.md#deployment-configuration-options) require OpenShift infrastructure to provide availability for the following persistent volumes (PV):

    3 RWO (ReadWriteOnce) persistent volumes
    1 RWX (ReadWriteMany) persistent volume
        3scale's System component needs a RWX(ReadWriteMany) PersistentVolume for its FileStorage when System's FileStorage is configured to be a PVC (default behavior). System's FileStorage characteristics:
            Contains configuration files read by the System component at run-time
            Stores Static files (HTML, CSS, JS, etc) uploaded to System by its CMS feature, for the purpose of creating a Developer Portal
            System can be scaled horizontally with multiple pods uploading and reading said static files, hence the need for a RWX PersistentVolume when APIManager is configured to use PVC as System's FileStorage

The alternative is using S3 as external storage https://github.com/3scale/3scale-operator/blob/master/doc/operator-user-guide.md#s3-filestorage-installation

Thanks I'll try out this

I have created the S3 user with the permissions mentioned in the document here
I am not sure where to add the Secrets mentioned in https://github.com/3scale/3scale-operator/blob/master/doc/operator-user-guide.md#s3-filestorage-installation
Should I add it under the CustomPolicyDefinitions or in the XML for creating API managers?

Same namespace as the APIManager CR

Thanks this worked for me.
