LINMN01

Server Names	LINMN01
Description	CloudBlue Commerce management node on Linux. The server runs CloudBlue Commerce management software.
Density	500,000 accounts Important: On the installations with more than 50 parallel active sessions in UX1 for Customers (in peak), the APS Booster service must be enabled. Refer to the Enabling APS Booster Service on UI Cluster section of the Linux Platform Deployment Guide for the instructions. To evaluate current CloudBlue Commerce UI load profile, please refer to this KB article or contact CloudBlue Commerce Support team.
Quantity	1
OS	RHEL 7.4 (x64) or higher CentOS 7.4 (x64) or higher
Software	To be installed by customer: OS only Important: Do not use the Extra Packages for Enterprise Linux (EPEL) repository and do not install Redis Cache versions other than 2.4.x. Otherwise, CloudBlue Commerce will not be able to operate properly.
CPU	4 core (2.4 GHz or higher) Important: Depending on the amount of CloudBlue Commerce accounts and users, the number of required physical cores may change: 12 physical cores for 50,000 accounts or 250,000 users 14 physical cores for 100,000 accounts or 500,000 users 15 physical cores for 200,000 accounts or 1,000,000 users 16 physical cores for 300,000 accounts or 1,500,000 users 18 physical cores for 400,000 accounts or 2,000,000 users 20 physical cores for 500,000 accounts or 2,500,000 users A big number of users, subscriptions, or domains under a single account can dramatically decrease the system performance for the users of that account. Stable performance of CloudBlue Commerce installation with the following quantity of users, subscriptions and domains has been confirmed by tests: Users: 50,000, Subscriptions: 500, Domains: 5,000, under a single account.
RAM	Important: Depending on the amount of CloudBlue Commerce accounts and users, the amount of required RAM may change: 14 GB for 50,000 accounts or 250,000 users 18 GB for 100,000 accounts or 500,000 users 32 GB for 200,000 accounts or 1,000,000 users 36 GB for 300,000 accounts or 1,500,000 users 45 GB for 400,000 accounts or 2,000,000 users 54 GB for 500,000 accounts or 2,500,000 users A big number of users, subscriptions, or domains under a single account can dramatically decrease the system performance. Stable performance of CloudBlue Commerce installation with the following quantity of users, subscriptions and domains has been confirmed by tests: Users: 50,000, Subscriptions: 500, Domains: 5,000, under a single account.
Disks	Array 1:
	OS and software	Important: Depending on the amount of CloudBlue Commerce accounts and users, the amount of required disk space may change: 3 x 480 GB, SCSI, SAN storage or RAID 5 (hardware impl.) with Battery Backup Unit for 50,000 accounts/250,000 users 3 x 560 GB, SCSI, SAN storage or RAID 5 (hardware impl.) with Battery Backup Unit for 100,000 accounts/500,000 users 3 x 720 GB, SCSI, SAN storage or RAID 5 (hardware impl.) with Battery Backup Unit for 200,000 accounts/1,000,000 users 3 x 880 GB, SCSI, SAN storage or RAID 5 (hardware impl.) with Battery Backup Unit for 300,000 accounts/1,500,000 users 3 x 1040 GB, SCSI, SAN storage or RAID 5 (hardware impl.) with Battery Backup Unit for 400,000 accounts/2,000,000 users 3 x 1200 GB, SCSI, SAN storage or RAID 5 (hardware impl.) with Battery Backup Unit for 500,000 accounts/2,500,000 users Note: In case you are going to use APS Booster, the node hosting master database needs extra 256 GB of free disk space for storing WAL files (16384 WAL files * 16 MB each).
Disk Partitioning	Array 1:
	/ - 5 GB	- for OS
	2 x RAM size (16 GB)	- swap
	/usr – at least 20 GB	- for software Note: The task logs are stored in /usr/local/pem/var/taskLogs therefore there should be enough disk space allocated to /usr.
	/var – remaining space	- for CloudBlue Commerce system logs (600 GB - for logging in /var/log)
NICs	BackNet There are also additional requirements for BackNet throughput in case you are going to use APS Booster. For more details refer to the Deploying UI on Cluster section.

Important: Due to the security reasons, disable IPv6 support in backnet network interface properties on the CloudBlue Commerce management node, UI and branding nodes.
If you use a container for deploying CloudBlue Commerce management node, UI node, open the container configuration file - /etc/sysconfig/vz-scripts/<container_id>.conf - and remove the IPv6 support for the host-only interface. If you create a new container, make sure that IPv6 support for backnet network interface is not specified in the container creation parameters.
If CloudBlue Commerce management node, UI node is deployed on a real physical server, disable the IPv6 support in backnet network interface using the standard functionality of the OS being installed. For instructions on how to do it, refer to the appropriate documentation of the server OS.
