Cisco Prime Infra 2.1 Standard Install using OVA File HD Requirements

[lomonaco]

   Hi guys,

       I wanna install the Cisco Prime Infra Standard 2.1 using the OVA File but I haven't 900 HD Space continuous in Storage.

   Two questions

       01) The Virtual Machine allocate this space (900 HD) during the install or allocate dynamically as needed ?

       02) There is a option to install the Standard Version using less HD space ?

      Thanks

      My Best Regards

Hi Andre,

AFAIK ,

1)VM allocate this space dynamically as needed.

2) you can Installed PI with less space ( HD) ,installation will go smooth , problem may occur when the size of the network go large or you manage more wired and wireless devices.. there are other factors too..

Thanks-

Afroz

Initially we installed medium when Prime 2.0 came out, however about 3 months lately we needed to upgrade to standard/pro.  Upgrading the CPU/Core was seamless  

Install a smaller OVA with enough cpu/cores for the standard and just add disk space later on

Its not a recommended practice but there are work around...
