Please read the following prerequisites and deployment information prior to installing OmniVista Terra.
Pre-requisites:
-
Download the OVTX OVA file and Build release file ( .7z file) from the MyPortal website.
-
Use a VMware ESXi server with version 8.
The information below lists the hypervisor deployment sizing configurations for the OmniVista Terra VM. Before installation, ensure the server has sufficient hardware for your deployment. Requirements vary based on the number of nodes you plan to deploy.

The following are configuration examples for a High Availability (HA) cluster and a single-node cluster deployment:
Option 1: High Availability (HA) Cluster
Deploy 3 OVTx nodes with High Availability (HA) support.
Each node requires:
-
Processors: 8 vCPUs
-
RAM: 32 GB
-
System Disk: 200 GB
-
Data Disk Size: 500 GB
Option 2: Single-Node Cluster
Deploy 1 OVTx node as a single-node cluster.
The node requires:
-
Processors: 16 vCPUs
-
RAM: 32 GB
-
System Disk: 200 GB
-
Data Disk Size: 500 GB
-
Disk Type: SSD (Minimum 50 MB/s read/write speed) on the server.
-
CPU Must Support AVX/AVX2 Instructions - In a vCenter cluster configuration, it is required to enable EVC mode with the CPU baseline set to “Ice Lake” (3rd Gen Xeon) or later. This ensures support for advanced CPU instruction sets such as AVX and AVX2. As a minimum requirement, the “Broadwell” baseline may be used.
