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 at the day of installation.

Virtual Machine Settings	TruView Central Small	TruView Flow 5K	TruView Flow 20K	TruView Flow 50K
Type	A	B	C	D
CPU	4	4	4	4
Memory	16	16	16	16
Network adapter 1	1x VMXNET3	1x VMXNET3	1x VMXNET3	1x VMXNET3
Hard disk 1 (see 1)	128GB	128GB	128GB	128GB
Hard disk 2 (see 1)	100GB	250GB	1TB	2.5TB
Hard disk 3 (see 1)	500GB	No hard disk 3	No hard disk 3	No hard disk 3
OS (see 2)	CentOS 7	CentOS 7	CentOS 7	CentOS 7

   

   

   

   

   

 

 

 

 

(1) It is important to respect the order and sizes of the hard disk.

(2) For information only; the operarating system is part of the iso and installed together with the software.

 

TruView Medium Systems

This deployment has been tested in situations where there is one TruView Central in combination and any combination of TruView Flow appliance to a total of 300K flow/s and up to four TruView Packet.

All appliances are installed from an iso-file provided by COMCERT at the day of installation.
