Hardware requirements of starterset or starter profile
Review the following tables if you are deploying a starterset or starter profile of foundational services.
Notes:
-
You can switch between
starterset,starter,small,medium,largeandproductionprofiles before the installation of foundational services (before creating theOperandRequest). -
In the post installation step (after creating the
OperandRequestfor essential services), you can change thestartersetorstarterprofile to small, medium, and large profiles. However, once you change your profile to small, medium, or large, you cannot roll back to thestartersetorstarterprofile. -
For capacity planning, consider the CPU request and memory request. The CPU request is the minimum number of cores that must be available when a service is created. The memory request is the minimum amount of memory that must be available when a service is created.
-
To determine the total CPU and memory requirement for all services, see Hardware requirements and recommendations for foundational services.
