 RAM: 32 GB

 Storage: SSD with at least 500 GB capacity

 CPU: 8 cores

 RAM: 64 GB

 Storage: SSD with at least 1 TB capacity

 CPU: 8 cores

 RAM: 128 GB

 Storage: SSD with at least 2 TB capacity


 OS: Ubuntu 22.04 LTS

 Network requirements: Inbound - TCP/27017

 Note: If Mongodb is already available, one database can be utilized for cloudmon

Linux Probes

 

 CPU: 4 cores

 RAM: 16 GB

 Storage: SSD with at least 250 GB capacity


 CPU: 8 cores

 RAM: 32 GB

 Storage: SSD with at least 500 GB capacity


 OS: Ubuntu 22.04 LTS

 Network requirements:

 Outbound - Ports 80, 443, and 8883 (required for NetFlow, allowing nProbe to connect to the ntop cloud; the  host must be able to communicate with https://cloud.ntop.org) and the monitored port.

 Inbound: UDP/2055 (for Netflow), UDP/514 (Syslog), UDP/162 (SNMP Trap).

 Internet access -  https://pro.ip-api.com

 Note: The probe requires Internet access for monitoring resources in AWS or Azure Cloud.

 Windows Probe

 

 CPU: 4 cores 

 RAM: 16 GB 

 Storage: SSD with at least 500 GB capacity 


 OS: Windows 10+, Windows server 2012+ 

 Network requirements: 

 ▫ Admin privileged for probe installation 

 ▫ Network connectivity to target devices (WMI Devices). 

 ▫ Connectivity to Cloudmon Controller 

 Note: WMI monitoring can be enabled locally on the same Windows server where the Windows probe is installed. 

Note:

1.         Cloudmon Database can be installed along with the Server with same database system configuration.

2.         For Deployments larger than 5000 nodes and High availability contact sales@veryxtech.com.

3.         Cloudmon can be deployed on physical or virtual servers, whether on-premises or in the cloud.

4.         For comprehensive system requirements, please visit cloudmon-support.veryxtech.com.

5.         The listed minimum server requirements are based on a default configuration. Significantly increasing the monitors, or the frequency of statistic collection may add extra load to the server, which could necessitate a larger CPU or additional memory.

6.         The storage size required depends on several factors: the duration for which data is retained, whether debug logging is enabled, and the overall volume of data being stored.
