VIAVI TestCenter: What are the recommended hardware requirements for STC Virtual ESXi, QEMU or Anywhere?
For a single port per VM configuration:
Port SpeedMemoryCPU cores100M512MB1 core1G1024MB2 cores10G1024MB3 cores
For multiple ports per VM configuration:
Port SpeedMemoryCPU cores100MMemory = Ports * 512MB CPU cores = Ports * 11GMemory = Ports * 512MBCPU cores = Ports * 210GMemory = Ports * 512MBCPU cores = (Ports * 2) + 1
For example.
If a user needs4 x 10G ports ; HW requirements for"Multiple ports per VM configuration", says that:
4x10G ports:Memory = 4 * 512MB = 2048 MBCPU cores = (4 * 2) + 1 = 9 Cores
So, the user will need, at least, 2048 MB of memory and 9 Cores.
