Roving Edge Infrastructure Device Usage Guidelines

Describes guidelines for how much storage and CPU capacity Oracle recommends you use for your Roving Edge Infrastructure devices.

Follow the usage guidelines for Roving Edge Infrastructure devices described in this topic. Exceeding these guidelines can result in performance issues and degradation.

Determining Device Storage Capacity

Oracle recommends you avoid using more than 80% of your Roving Edge Infrastructure devices' storage capacity. Here are specific storage capacity guidelines for each type of device:

  • Single Roving Edge Device (RED): A Roving Edge Infrastructure device has a total capacity of 55.92 TiB raw allocated for all services. In addition, 4 TiB is available for VM images.

  • Roving Edge Ultra: A Roving Edge Ultra device has a total capacity of 6.99 TiB raw allocated for all services.

These amounts are displayed in the node details in OCI when you attach your workloads. As more workloads are attached, the amount of available space is recalculated.

Note

Limit the workload size (sum of all object and image workloads) to 50% or less of the usable capacity of your Roving Edge Infrastructure devices. If your workloads exceed this amount, you receive a warning.

CPU Usage Recommendations

Oracle recommends that you do not exceed 80% CPU utilization on your Roving Edge Infrastructure devices.
