Networking Minerva User Guide

Resource Requirements

These requirements are for Docker Swarm installations. For Kubernetes, see Capacity in Kubernetes Requirements.

Verify that your environment meets the following minimum per-node requirements before installing NVIDIA Minerva. NVIDIA Minerva supports x86-64 (amd64) and ARM64 (aarch64) hosts. All nodes in a deployment must use the same architecture. Resource needs increase with telemetry retention settings and data volume. The requirements in this table are for a test cluster integrated with a single rack or ten Spectrum switches. For resource requirements for your specific environment, contact NVIDIA support.

Resource

Minimum Requirement (per node)

Processor

64 virtual CPUs

Memory

128 GB

Local disk

1 TB

Best practice: Keep the root volume on a separate logical volume from the NVIDIA Minerva data path, and ensure the root volume has at least 100 GB of free space before installation. This separation helps prevent loss of system access if the data volume fills.
