Hi Ankush, Unfortunately, the Planning Guide Bruce mentioned is not available yet, we are still working on upstreaming this doc. In the meantime, I hope the info Greg pointed to is helpful. Please let us know if you have more questions. thanks, Mary Camp Kelly Services Technical Writer | maryx.camp@intel.com<mailto:maryx.camp@intel.com> From: Waines, Greg <Greg.Waines@windriver.com> Sent: Sunday, November 8, 2020 7:12 PM To: Rai, Ankush <Ankush.Rai@commscope.com>; starlingx-discuss@lists.starlingx.io Subject: Re: [Starlingx-discuss] Resource requirement for Starlingx All of the existing install guides have a section on “Minimum Hardware Requirements” (i.e. I think you want minimum not maximum, right ?) e.g. for the aio-simplex https://docs.starlingx.io/deploy_install_guides/r5_release/bare_metal/aio_si...

What would be the maximum requirement for below resources? * Processor core - * Hyper threads - * Memory - * Primary disk - The objective of this question is to find out the available resources pool for application deployment. For an example if the worker node hardware has ‘X’ Hyper-Threads and on an average ‘Y’ Hyper-Threads would be used by Starlingx platform, then remaining Hyper-Thread would be available for user applications. How do I get this ‘Y’ portion of resource here? Note: the deployment is not going to host the Openstack (stx-openstack), so its overhead can be excluded. Is this something, that can be concluded by starligx admin portal, PlatformHost -> InventoryHost -> Detail: Storage: UUID Disk info Type Size (GiB) Available Size (GiB) RPM Serial ID Model 468da969-bca7-45b5-be1d-7bb1fc2e55c1 /dev/disk/by-path/pci-0000:1a:00.0-scsi-0:2:0:0<http://10.211.41.101:8080/admin/2/detail/> HDD 1117.25 860.46 Undetermined 001e338e94a69cd72600770c4cf0a7ce PERC H740P Mini Memory: Reserved for Platform: 7000 MiB Usable Total: 121390 MiB Available: 121390 MiB What does this CPU profile means? is this provides a way to reserve/associate CPUs for user applications ? Any pointers to understand the resource allocation in starlingx ? Regards, Ankush
