Cisco Prime infrastructure 2.0 cpu requirement

[theophile]

Hi,

i'm reading the doc at http://www.cisco.com/en/US/customer/docs/net_mgmt/prime/infrastructure/2.0/quickstart/guide/cpi_qsg.html#wp46865
and I'm searching for the CPU requirement for a Standard installation. From table 2 in this document, I will need 16 virtual CPUS but there is no frequency mentioned. Does someone know what is the minimum CPU frequency to run PI 2.0 correctly?

Thanks

Theo

The ova does not require a specific frequency of CPU. Whatever you provide will work as long as your ESX environment can allocate the required number of vCPUs.

how can allocate the required number of vCPUs on prime infrastructure 2.0

Thanks

The number of vCPU's depends on your ESXi host, either your limited to 8 or you will have 16, 32, etc.  The vCPU amount is defined on the VM or PI2.0 and you can change it after the VM has been installed.  PI 2.0 has an Express (4 vCPU), Standard and Pro which require 16 vCPU.  There is a custome express that uses the Express ova (4 vCPU), but you need to increase that to 8 vCPU.  Hope that helps.

Thanks,
