Requirements for the vRanger machine

To maximize application performance, and to ensure error-free operation, you must ensure that the machine on which vRanger is installed meets the requirements as documented in this topic.

Requirements for the vRanger machine are divided among these topics:

•

Minimum hardware requirements

•

Supported operating systems for installation

Review each of these topics thoroughly before installing vRanger.


	NOTE: For LAN-free and HotAdd installation requirements, see Physical backup and restore.

Minimum hardware requirements

The minimum hardware requirements to run vRanger can vary widely based on several factors. Therefore, you should not do a large-scale implementation without first completing a scoping and sizing exercise.

vRanger: physical machine

The following describes the hardware recommendations for the vRanger physical machine:

Table 1. Requirements for a installing vRanger on a physical machine
CPU	Any combination equaling four cores of CPUs are recommended. Example one quad-core CPU; two dual-core CPUs.
RAM	4 GB RAM is required.
Storage	At least 4 GB free hard disk space on the vRanger machine.
HBA	For LAN-free, Quest recommends that you use two HBAs — one for read operations and one for writing.

vRanger: virtual machine (VM)

The following describes the hardware recommendations for using vRanger in a VM:

Table 2. Requirements for a installing vRanger on a virtual machine
CPU	Four vCPUs.
RAM	4 GB RAM is recommended.
Storage	At least 4 GB free hard disk space on the vRanger machine.
