Dimensioning Virtual Machines
Introduction
We recommend the following virtual machine sizes.
Solution
TruView Small System
This deployment has been tested in situations where there is one TruView Central in combination with one TruView Flow (5K, 20K or 50K) and no TruView Packet.
All appliances are installed from an iso-file provided by COMCERT.
| Virtual Machine | TruView Central Small | TruView Flow 5K | TruView Flow 20K | TruView Flow 50K |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| CPU | 4 | 4 | 4 | 4 |
| Memory | 16 | 16 | 16 | 16 |
| Network adapter 1 | 1x VMXNET3 | 1x VMXNET3 | 1x VMXNET3 | 1x VMXNET3 |
| Hard disk 1 (1) | 128GB | 128GB | 128GB | 128GB |
| Hard disk 2 (1) | 100GB | 250GB | 1TB | 2.5TB |
| Hard disk 3 (1) | 500GB | NA | NA | NA |
| OS (2) | CentOS 7 | CentOS 7 | CentOS 7 | CentOS 7 |
(1) It is important to respect the order and sizes of the hard disk.
(2) The operarating system is installed as part of the iso deployment.
TruView Medium Systems
This deployment has been tested in situations where there is one TruView Central in combination and any combination of TruView Flow applianced to a total of 300K flow/s and up to four TruView Packet.
All appliances are installed from an iso-file provided by COMCERT.
| Virtual Machine | TruView Central Medium | TruView Flow 5K | TruView Flow 20K | TruView Flow 50K |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| CPU | 8 | 4 | 4 | 4 |
| Memory | 32 | 16 | 16 | 16 |
| Network adapter 1 | 1x VMXNET3 | 1x VMXNET3 | 1x VMXNET3 | 1x VMXNET3 |
| Hard disk 1 (1) | 128GB | 128GB | 128GB | 128GB |
| Hard disk 2 (1) | 100GB | 250GB | 1TB | 2.5TB |
| Hard disk 3 (1) | 2TB | NA | NA | NA |
| OS (2) | CentOS 7 | CentOS 7 | CentOS 7 | CentOS 7 |
(1) It is important to respect the order and sizes of the hard disk.
(2) The operarating system is installed as part of the iso deployment.
