Ensure that your environment meets the hardware prerequisites
for your IBM® Cloud
Orchestrator installation.
IBM Cloud
Orchestrator is
installed on the IBM Cloud Orchestrator Server.
The IBM Cloud Orchestrator Server can
be a virtual machine or a physical server, and must meet the following
minimum hardware requirements.

Disk planning considerations:
- The specified hard disk space is the minimum free space that is
required on the server before the IBM Cloud
Orchestrator installation.
Ensure that the hard disk has sufficient space for the required partitions.
- The specified hard disk space is for an installation in the default
directories. The /opt value includes 16 GB for
the installation files, which can be deleted after the installation
completes successfully. If you install in other directories, ensure
that you have sufficient space in those directories.
- Extra space might be required on the /home partition
after a period of time, depending on database size. Monitor the partition
size. Use Logical Volume Manager (LVM) to manage the partition so
that you can extend the size if required.
