Verify StorCycle Requirements

Ensure that the server you will use for StorCycle meets the following minimum requirements:

Note:

Additional RAM and CPU cores will improve file transfer speeds in most cases.

§

32 GB RAM

§	Four 64-bit CPU cores running at a minimum of 2.8 GHz

§	500 GB allocated to root (/dev/mapper/centos-root)

§	10 GigE network or better

§	CentOS 7.7

§	A network which supports reverse DNS lookups. If the network does not support reverse DNS lookups, then the IPv4 address of the storage location is used in HTML links created during a migrate / store job. See Migrate / Store Wizard — Set Targets for more information.

§	The StorCycle solution uses whatever domain is configured on the server, including multiple/trusted domains, to access DNS (Domain Name System) to resolve UNC (Universal Naming Convention) paths over the domain and uses Active Directory to verify restore users are valid on the domain.

§	If BlackPearl storage locations are configured to group files into TAR or ZIP ‘packs’ (Step 1), the data to be packed is temporarily written to the server disk storage before it is transferred.

§	When using packing, the StorCycle solution requires enough server disk storage for ten times the size of a pack (10 * 10 GB), or the largest file that will be migrated / stored in a pack, whichever is larger.

§	For maximum performance, Spectra Logic recommends that flash/SSD storage be used for the StorCycle server disk storage when creating TAR or ZIP packs.

§	The maximum file directory path length is 1024 characters.

§	The user interface supports Google Chrome version 75 or later.
