VCF Operations for Networks

Issue/Introduction

During the deployment of VCF Operations for Networks, there is a question regarding which brick size is desired. 

After deployment, it is possible to change the brick size of your appliance from MEDIUM to LARGE or LARGE to EXTRA-LARGE.

Environment

VCF Operations for Networks 6.x

Cause

The choice made for brick size during initial deployment of VCF Operations for Networks may not be sufficient to allow all desired features to work as expected.  

 

Resolution

The process to increase the brick size of the deployment can be found in the documentation at Increase the Brick Size of Your Setup

Note that there are two different sub-sections.

  1. For a single node platform 
  2. For a cluster setup

Please be sure to follow the steps that are appropriate for your deployment; i.e. clustered (multiple platform nodes) or standalone (single platform node). 

The Recommendations for Cores Required, RAM and Disk for each brick size can be found at System Recommendations and Requirements
