1 Hardware Requirements for Enterprise

Manager Cloud Control

This chapter describes the minimum hardware requirements you must meet before
installing Oracle Management Service (OMS), Oracle Management Agents
(Management Agents), and Oracle Management Repository (Management
Repository).

In particular, this chapter covers the following:

 CPU, RAM, Heap Size, and Hard Disk Space Requirements for Oracle
Management Service
 CPU, RAM, and Hard Disk Space Requirements for Oracle Management Agent,
Hybrid Cloud Agent, Hybrid Cloud Gateway Agent
 CPU, RAM, and Hard Disk Space Requirements for Oracle Management
Repository
Note:

The hardware requirements outlined in this chapter can relate to either physical or
virtual hardware. If you are allocating virtual resources, you must ensure that the
underlying physical hardware is not over subscribed and can support the allocated
virtual resources.

WARNING:

Do not install Enterprise Manager Cloud Control 13c on servers of SPARC series:
T1000, T2000, T5xx0, and T3-*. For more information, see My Oracle Support note
1590556.1.

CPU, RAM, Heap Size, and Hard Disk Space Requirements for
Oracle Management Service
Table 1-1 describes the minimum CPU, physical memory (RAM), heap size, and hard
disk space requirements for installing an OMS (including a Management Agent that
comes with it).

Note:
If you plan to have the OMS and the Management Repository on the same host, then
meet the requirements described in Table 1-1 and Table 1-3, and make sure
the CPU, RAM, and hard disk space requirements are a combination of the values
mentioned in both tables.

Caution:

The requirements mentioned in Table 1-1 indicate the minimum configuration

required at the time of installation. Understandably, over a period of time, depending
on the use of Enterprise Manager resources, you might have to upgrade to a higher
configuration than the one you maintained at the time of installation. For example, the
hard disk space required at the time of installation is 18 GB, but depending on the use
of Oracle Software Library, generation of log files, and so on, you might require more
space eventually.

The physical memory mentioned here includes .5 GB of RAM required for Oracle BI
Publisher. At the time of installation, if you choose not to configure Oracle BI
Publisher, then the actual physical memory required can be .5 GB less than what is
mentioned here.

CPU, RAM, and Hard Disk Space Requirements for Oracle

Management Agent, Hybrid Cloud Agent, Hybrid Cloud
Gateway Agent
The following are the minimum CPU, RAM, and hard disk space requirements for
installing Oracle Management Agents (Management Agent), Hybrid Cloud Agents, and
Hybrid Cloud Gateway Agents.

Caution:

The requirements mentioned in this section indicate the minimum configuration

required at the time of installation. Understandably, over a period of time, depending
on the use of Enterprise Manager resources, you might have to upgrade to a higher
configuration than the one you maintained at the time of installation. For example, the
hard disk space required at the time of installing a Shared Agent is 15 MB, but
depending on its use, generation of log files, and so on, you might require more space
eventually.

Note:

 The CPU cores can be shared with other processes.

 For a Hybrid Cloud Agent and for a Hybrid Cloud Gateway Agent, the
requirements are the same as the requirements mentioned for a standalone
Management Agent.

CPU, RAM, and Hard Disk Space Requirements for Oracle

Management Repository
Table 1-3 describes the minimum RAM and hard disk space requirements for
configuring a Management Repository:

Note:

If you plan to have the Management Repository and the OMS on the same host, then
meet the requirements described in Table 1-3 and Table 1-1, and make sure the CPU,
RAM, and hard disk space requirements are a combination of the values mentioned in
both tables.

Caution:

The requirements mentioned in Table 1-3 indicate the minimum configuration

required at the time of installation. Understandably, over a period of time, depending
on the use of Enterprise Manager resources, you might have to upgrade to a higher
configuration than the one you maintained at the time of installation. For example, the
hard disk space required at the time of installation is 19 GB, but depending on the use
of the Management Repository over time, you might require more space eventually.
