Minimum Installation Requirements for POV Environments

Overview

This topic describes how to set up TOS in a POV environment with minimum hardware requirements. We recommend these requirements for small POVs. Larger POVs may require more resources and should follow instructions for standard TOS installation (see Clean Install Procedures).

Note that usage of this configuration in customer/prospect environments must be approved by local pre-sales management.

Minimum POV resources

  • CPU Cores:

    • 8 when only SecureTrack is installed (--modules = st)

    • 16 when both SecureTrack and SecureChange are installed (--modules = st,sc)

  • Memory: 64 GB

  • Disk Size: 400 GB

  • Disk Performance: 250 MBps throughput, 7500 IOPS

POV Installation

For the installation, follow the procedures for any clean install (see Clean Install Procedures).

Use small for the <LOAD> value.

Installation command:

[tufin-admin@TOS Aurora (Undefined variable: Local.ServerType)]# sudo tos install --modules=<MODULE-TYPE> --primary-vip=<PRIMARY> --services-network=<SERVICE-CIDR> --load-model=<LOAD>

For example:

# sudo tos install --modules=ST,SC --primary-vip=192.168.1.2 --services-network=10.10.10.0/24 --load-model=small
