management console 6.1 SP2 requirements

Benjamin_Schwar

I understand that the Management Console has been significantly changed from previous versions, and that it no longer requires a dedicated server.  I need guidance on what the CPU/Memory and disk space requirements are now.  We have a 9 node cluster with about 12TB of raw data.  I'd like to know if I can run the MC in a VM instead of on dedicated hardware.

Thanks.

Hello Benjamin, the manual states:

"You can install MC on any node in the cluster, so there are no special disk requirements for MC—other than disk space you would normally allocate for your database cluster."

Other changes to the MC are detailed in the manual:

Yes, the MC can be run on a VM.
