Collector Requirements

The Collector can be deployed on Microsoft Hyper-V or VMware

It is a hardened Debian based virtual machine - packaged in either an OVA or ZIP file - depending on the type of image.

The VM recommended specifications are as follows:

  • 2 vCPU
  • 8GB RAM
  • 16GB HDD1 (Thin Provisioned)
  • 80GB HDD2 (Thin Provisioned)
  • 1 or 2 E1000 vNICs

We would recommend increasing the vCPU's to 4 if the estate to monitor is large (80+ devices)

Below are the recommended specifications for the hypervisor node:

  • 4-Core CPU 2.1GHz or above
  • 16GB+ RAM
  • 200GB Storage
  • 2+ NICs

We recommend running Hyper-V 2019+ or VMWare 7.0+
