  • 1.  CPPM IOPS Value

    Posted Dec 11, 2023 08:57 AM

    Dear Clearpass Community,

    I recently deployed a 6.11 Cluster where I had some bad sideeffects that I could solve by disabling Insight Database.
    I do believe that the root cause is a slow storage system (VM ESXi, 2x C2000) but I am not the Admin of the ESX stuff.
    The VM Requirements always states " reasonable amount of IOPS" - but what is exactly the minimum or the recommended requirement?
    The current values of the system are: Read 4357 and Write 1502 which is way below what my LAB- INtel NUC can achieve....

    Thanks in advance!

    Stefan

    There are numbers listed in the Policy Manager Ordering and Scaling Guide. The numbers there are 105 for a C2000 and 350 for a C3000, which sound quite low to me. Note that the original appliances (and maybe even the current shipping) use classic spinning disks. If you have SSD storage, you probably would not need to worry about the IOPS.
