Hardware spec. suggestion

Hi All

    My customer want to upgrade exist sentinel 7.4.4.2 , I will use refresh install sentinel 8.5 appliance to replace.

but it exist senitnel's EPS is too huge (9000 EPS).

  I want to use sentinel with remote collector manager appliance..but I do not know the hardware could meet the EPS:

sentinel 8.5 (16 vCPU / 64 GRAM)

collector manager 8.5 appliance (2 servers) : each server use 16 vcpu / 16GRAM 

the EPS will grow to 11000 EPS in 2 years.

    Hi Wencheng,

    It's all explained here really:
    https://www.microfocus.com/documentation/sentinel/8.5/s85system-requirements/s85system-requirements.html#t4a8ng9tfk7z


    -> Section 1.2.2 onward.


    Also if they use elasticsearch in the future, I suggest you cover the system requirements for that as well. So make sure they have a cluster in place with external nodes. Not just the Sentinel core server, as a single node cluster.
    So cover this:
    - System Requirements for Elasticsearch#
    - Elasticsearch Cluster Nodes#


    Hope this clarifies it.


    Regards,

    Hi Henk

        Customer use triditional Sentinel Appliance , just as log server , no other function(include report) be used.

    so elasticsearch should not meet requirement.

        Yes..I saw this sysem requirement...I check the 21000EPS section...I think if EPS is half...whether I place 2 CollectMgr + 1 sentinel , but hard spec is half of document suggest , does it work fine ?
