Title: virtual Diskspace
Post by: FHSRZ on December 08, 2014, 12:16:49 PM
Hello,

i want to install a NetXMS on virtual Machine (Debian), so i need to calculate the virtual Diskspace. I want to run on this Debian the MySQL Server, NetxMS + Agent and the WebUI. I will monitor 500 nodes. How much Diskspace i will need?  Is there a table to calculate it?

Best regards.

No table, you need to calculate:
How many nodes, how many OIDs per node, what type of OIDs (integer, string, etc...), what poll interval, what data retention period, will there be syslog...

After calculating all of that, you can estimate what kind of disk space your historical data will consume.

500 Nodes
20 OID per Node
different types (most of them will be Integer)
poll intervall = 5 min
data retention period = 2 weeks
no syslog

Is there a information page or something like that where i can find how much space 1 node need like here

Hello.

We have a spreadsheet for this kind of calculation; It was implemented for MSSQL, but it will dive you pretty much correct estimate for other DBMS as well.
You can download it here: http://git.netxms.org/public/netxms.git/blob/develop:/doc/misc/database_sizing.xlsx
