Hardware requirements
=====================

Bare metal deployment on Pharos Lab
-----------------------------------

Hardware requirements for bare-metal deployments of the OPNFV infrastucture are specified
by the Pharos project. The Pharos project provides an OPNFV hardware specification for
configuring your hardware at: http://artifacts.opnfv.org/pharos/docs/pharos-spec.html.

Virtual deployment hardware requirements
----------------------------------------

To perform a virtual deployment of an OPNFV scenario on a single host, that host has to
meet the hardware requirements outlined in the <missing spec>.

Additional Hardware requirements
--------------------------------

When ODL is used as SDN Controller in an OPNFV, virtual deployment, ODL is
running on the OpenStack Controller VMs. it is therefore recommmended to
increase the amount of resources these VMs have.

Our recommendation is to have 2 more virtual cores and 8GB more virtual memory. Together with the commonly used recommendation this sums up to:
::

 4 virtual cores
 16 GB virtual memory

See in Installation section how to configure this.
