Use Fusion master nodes as host for IBM Cloud Satellite master nodes

See this idea on ideas.ibm.com

If you currently use Fusion HCI as host platform for IBM Cloud Satellite you will use the Fusion HCI worker nodes. This results in a underutilization of the Fusion HCI Master nodes. By enabling the IBM Cloud Satellite location master nodes on the Fusion HCI master nodes the utilization of Fusion HCI would increase greatly improving the TCO of Fusion HCI as platform for IBM Cloud Satellite. IBM Cloud Satellite can be deployed on standard x86 bare metal wit ie CoreOS servers or any virtualization. Comparing procurement cost it’s significantly lower procuring standard x86 servers versus Fusion HCI for hosting with IBM Cloud Satellite, especially when you have small/medium sized environments. IBM Cloud Satellite requires 6 logical hosts (3 masters + 3 workers). In Fusion HCI you use 6 logical hosts (3 masters + 3 workers) PLUS 3 physical hosts for the Fusion HCI master nodes.
