One more shot.how's the below for a decent, initial CS setup? Server #1 Purpose: CloudStack Control Panel Install (Management Server) Qty: 1 VM Machine (one production, one backup/HA) Cores: about 2-4 4GB RAM
Server #2 Purpose: HV (CPU + Memory + Storage) Qty: 1 plus 1 for failover (HA) Dual Hexacore CPUs 128GB RAM 12 x 2TB SAS (or 6x1TB SSD) RAID10 Server #3 Purpose: Backup (NAS) Qty: 1 Dual Quad Core CPUs 16GB RAM 12 x 2TB SATA RAID10 Question: for server #2 (HV), the CPU example is 24 Cores total. So, technically speaking I can offer a max of 6 VM's with 4 CPU cores allowanced to each one, correct? Does CS allow "overselling" by any means on CPU/Memory? Am I missing anything from above initial hardware setup? Anyone have any high availability (HA) setup recommendations for all 3 servers? I mean does CS have an HA config option within its own management console or is HA something done manually outside the CS software, but within the o/s on the nodes?
