System resource requirements

Last published : Jun 19, 2026
The amount of CPU cores, memory, and disk space that Veritas InfoScale Operations Manager requires are listed in this section. These requirements are in addition to any resources used by other software applications running on the same server.
For Management Server:
Environment Size CPU cores Memory Disk space
Small (up to 300 managed hosts) 4 4GB 5GB
Medium (up to 1500 managed hosts) 8 16GB 20GB
Large (up to 3500 managed hosts) 16 32GB 40GB
  • Add 4GB of memory and 5GB disk space if Management Server is used for the deep discovery of enclosures using Storage Insight Add-on.
  • Add 4GB of memory and 5GB disk space if Management Server is used for the discovery of virtualization infrastructure.
Additional considerations for system resource requirements for Veritas InfoScale Operations Manager:
  • It is recommended to have a swap space that is at least twice the size of RAM.
  • It is recommended to upgrade the managed hosts to the latest version for the best performance of the product.
  • The system resource requirements may vary based on the actual environment in which the product is deployed.
For a managed host:
  • CPU cores: 1
  • Memory: 1GB
  • Disk space: 2GB
  • Add 4GB of memory and 5GB disk space if being used as discovery host for the deep discovery of enclosures using Storage Insight Add-on.
For Control Host (host that has Control Host Add-on):
  • CPU: Dual processor for agentless discovery of every 1000 managed hosts.
  • Memory: 4GB for agentless discovery of every 1000 managed hosts. Add 4GB of memory if Control Host is used for the discovery of virtualization infrastructure.
  • Disk space: 15GB of disk space for agentless discovery of every 1000 managed hosts.
    Note: If any of the above is running on a virtual environment, it is recommended to have resources such as CPU cores and memory dedicated to the virtual machine for the best performance of the product.
