2.1.1.1 Hardware

Recommended hardware

Hardware type

Conditions

CPU

Intel(R) Xeon(R) 3 GHz or higher

Memory

4 GB or more


Static disk space: Installation area

The following disk space is required in order to install the Dashboard Server:

Used space

Conditions

Installation directory

200 MB

Work area directory

1800 MB


Dynamic disk space: Dashboard Server database area

To operate the Dashboard Server, in addition to the space used by the Manager, space will be required for the database for the Dashboard Server.

The space required for the database will depend on the number of resource instances to be managed by the Dashboard Server and the number of Agent/Proxy Managers.

To estimate the space required, first determine the types of records that the dashboard is to manage. Refer to "Data Formats" in the Reference Guide for information about records.

Note

The Dashboard Server can manage approximately 100 types of records.

The method for estimating the data volume for managing the records uses the same calculations as those used for the Manager, so estimate by referring to "Estimating the size of the performance database/archive file" in the Installation Guide. The Dashboard Server can process approximately 100 records per minute.

Note

The data retention period must be set separately from the Manager on the Dashboard Server. Set the retention period for each record that is to be managed by the dashboard.

To set the data retention periods after installing the dashboard, refer to "4.4 Setting Dashboard Server Data Retention Periods".

Note

The disk space required for the Built-in Database is 25 GB or more.


Dynamic disk space: Dashboard Server work area

The work area is used to temporarily store performance information transmitted from the Manager to the Dashboard Server and to save set up information.

To estimate the amount of disk space required for the work area, first estimate the data volume if the retention period is 1 day.

Next, use this estimate in the following formula to calculate the size of the work area:

Work area = data volume estimate result / 1440 * collection interval (minutes) * safety factor (1.5)

Point

The default collection interval for the Dashboard Server is 10 minutes.

To change the collection interval, refer to "4.1.3.3 Changing the Data Collection Interval of the Dashboard Server".

If the Dashboard Server needs to be stopped for maintenance or any other reason, multiply the result of the above formula by the length of time that the server will be stopped (in minutes) to estimate the work area.
