Supported Compute Requirements for OpenStack

In OpenStack, flavors set the vCPU, memory, and storage requirements for an image. Gigamon recommends that you create a flavor on your choice that matches or exceeds the supported requirements listed in the following table.

Compute Instances	vCPU	Memory	Disk Space	Description
UCT-V	2 vCPU	4GB	N/A	Available as rpm or Debian package. Instances can have a single vNIC or dual vNICs configured for monitoring the traffic.
UCT-V Controller	2 vCPU	4GB	10GB	Based on the number of agents being monitored, multiple controllers will be required to scale out horizontally.
GigaVUE V Series Node	4 vCPU	4GB	10GB	NIC 1: Monitored Network IP; Can be used as Tunnel IP NIC 2: Tunnel IP (optional) NIC 3: Management IP
GigaVUE V Series Proxy	1 vCPU	4GB	10GB	Based on the number of GigaVUE V Series nodes being monitored, multiple controllers will be required to scale out horizontally.
GigaVUE‑FM	4 vCPU	8GB	40GB	GigaVUE‑FM must be able to access the controller instance for relaying the commands. Use a flavor with a root disk of minimum 40GB and an ephemeral disk of minimum 41GB.

Note:  A single UCT-V Controller can manage up to 500 UCT-Vs. For more than 500 UCT-Vs, you must add an additional UCT-V Controller to scale up accordingly.

The instance size of the GigaVUE V Series Node is configured and packaged as part of the qcow2 image file.
