Host Access Management and Security Server

Specs

Tech Specs

Deployment options:

Virtual Software Appliance

The first option is an appliance, a virtual machine that contains everything you need to run Host Access for the Cloud in a virtualization environment, with minimal effort.

Linux installer to support your Linux Distribution

The second option is a Linux installer where you choose and manage your own Linux distribution, when that is a priority.

System Requirements:

Each virtual appliance VM or Linux install requires:

Minimum CPU, memory and storage requirements:

8 CPU Cores
16 GB RAM
60 GB virtual disk space (SSD)

Note: These are the minimum resources required for each node. These requirements assume that no other production software is installed on the node.

Fast Storage:

The use of a solid-state drive (SSD) or other fast storage solution is required.

Fixed IP address:

A fixed, non-changing IP address is required for each node. DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) is supported but the IP must be reserved and cannot change.

Supported Linux Operating Systems (Linux installer only):

These versions or greater:

  • SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 15 SP4

  • OpenSUSE Leap 15.4
