VM in a Fault Tolerance Setup

Table 1. Service Node 1 and Service Node 1 Standby Configuration
VMware Fault Tolerance
Number of Devices	Memory (GB)	CPU (kvm64)		Disk	Application	Max Traffic
Max SIP Devices Capacity	Minimum Memory required/reserved in GB per VM	Minimum CPU/vCPU required	Minimum MHz required/reserved	Disk Size (GB)	Type of Application	Calls per Second
500	10	4 * **	3000	250	SN, SNM, Cassandra	1.00
1000	10	4 * **	4000	250	SN, SNM, Cassandra	2.00
2500	12	4 * **	5000	250	SN, SNM, Cassandra	5.00
5000	14	6 * **	6500	250	SN, SNM, Cassandra	10.00
* indicates up to 8 vCPU are supported. ** indicates the capacity was validated using VMware ESXi, the network used between physical host is 10 Gigabit Ethernet. SIP traffic generators were used to simulate real traffic.

Note: Backing up data and execute config_mirror might slow down traffic flow; hence, Mitel recommends that you back up data during low traffic periods.
