Calculating System Requirements

Use this calculator to estimate the system requirements for using the Operations Center to manage your storage environment.

Disclaimer

The calculator estimates the system requirements based on the input that you provide and on performance data that was measured in a controlled environment. The requirements of your operating environment might vary significantly from those of the controlled environment, depending on factors such as system workload and configuration. The estimates do not constitute a performance guarantee or warranty.

Tips

• To account for unexpected conditions or periods of increased processing requirements, consider exceeding the calculator estimates (by 25%, for example).

Controls

• Show More: Switches to a more precise calculator, where you specify more parameters
• Show Basic: Switches back to the basic calculator, which makes estimates based on the parameters that have the largest impact on system requirements
• Add Spoke: Displays fields where you can add information about a spoke server
• Duplicate: Adds similar spoke servers so that you are not required to reenter server parameters
• Calculate: Displays the estimated system requirements
• Recalculate: Displays the estimated system requirements after you make changes in any field
