How it works…

The logical compute design defines the capacity and performance requirements for CPU and memory resources.

The logical compute design specifications are as follows:

  • Total CPU resources: 167 GHz
  • Total memory resources (25% TPS savings): 657 GB
  • Number of virtual machines per host: 20
  • Number of hosts required (N+2): 9
  • CPU resources per host: 23.8 GHz
  • Memory resources per host: 94 GB

The hardware that's selected for the physical compute design must satisfy the resource requirements of the logical compute design. These resources include the CPU and memory resources. The physical hardware that's selected must also be able to support the network and storage connectivity resources that are defined in the logical network and storage ...
