Table of contents Hardware for Large Aternity Deployment (up to 110,000 devices) The large Aternity deployment supports up to 110,000 monitored devices or virtual desktops, where up to 100,000 of them are physical devices and 10,000 are virtual application sessions. It assumes 10 Aternity logged in users updating dashboards and performing in total up to 10 clicks per minute. Large Aternity deployment Aternity requires one Aggregation Server per 40,000 monitored devices and one Vertica Database Server node per 25,000 monitored devices. So, calculate the number of servers you need following the amount of monitored devices in your organization. Data Warehouse Server should be deployed on a dedicated machine separately from other Aternity servers in deployments with more than 40,000 monitored devices. The disk space is for each separate Vertica Database Server node in a cluster, before any high availability (k-safety = 0). For minimum high availability, we recommend k-safety = 1 (learn more).

In addition, you can use a Logical Volume Manager (LVM) in Aternity 11 on any hard drive with no restrictions. See Vertica limitations for LVM. Verify that the disk partition dedicated to the Vertica data folder (see Target directory below) uses the EXT4 file system. Enter df -Th to verify.

If you do not deploy Aternity Data Source for Portal, you can reduce the amount of memory by 2GB and CPU cores by 0.3. If you do not deploy Aternity REST API Server, you can reduce the amount of memory by 2GB and CPU cores by 0.3. If you do not deploy SDA Server (Service Desk Alerts), you can reduce the amount of memory by 2GB and CPU cores by 1. You must also install each server with the required operating system and other software. For details, see the system and software requirements for each server.
