Installation Prerequisites

Minimum Requirements:

• CentOS 7 or Ubuntu 18 Virtual Machine. 
  • Use a dedicated virtual machine with no other production applications running on it. Install and update the base OS packages to the latest versions.
  • Ensure Internet connectivity to automatically install and configure software dependencies.
• vCPU/Core: 4
  • Example: Intel(R) Xeon(R) Platinum 8175M CPU @ 2.50 GHz
• RAM: 16 GB
• NIC interface: 1
• Disks mounted to the Virtual Machine: 2*
  • Host OS: 100 GB minimum
