VMWare Deployment

Prerequisites​

  • VMware Workstation, Standalone ESXi host Or VMware vSphere with ESXi Hypervisor / vCenter
  • Glasswall Halo v2 OVA VHD
  • Login credential for OVA (provided upon receiving your OVA per Glasswall Representative)
  • Minimum Hardware Requirements:
    • 16 virtual CPUs (vCPUs)
    • 32 GB of memory
    • 500 GB of free storage
    • Disk:
      • Throughput: It is recommended to use a disk with high IO throughput such as SSD (Solid State Disk) - if not, HDD with capacity of 500GB of free storage should suffice.
      • Size: The size of the disk depends on the typical size of files that will be used to CDR. If the cores and memory of the machine are scaled up from minimum requirements, the disk size should also be scaled by the same factor.
      • Logging: 40% of the disk should be allocated to /var/log/ where logs of all containers and services will be stored. Logs should be retained for configurable number of days(defaults to 30days).
      • Minimum size for PVC: The size of the PVC should be 50% of the total disk size which allows the remaining amount to be used by running services, logs etc.
