Backup storage on an NFS share
General requirements are listed in General requirements.
To better understand how to calculate the hardware configuration for backup storage with the NFS share destination, consider the following example with RAM and CPU reservations.
If you have 1 node (1 system+metadata disk and 1 storage disk) and want to use it for backup storage, refer to the table below for the calculations.
| Service | The only node |
|---|---|
| System | 4.5 GB, 3.3 cores |
| Storage services |
1 storage disk1, 1 metadata on system disk (each takes 0.5 GB and 0.2 cores), that is 1 GB and 0.4 cores in total |
| Backup Gateway | 1 GB, 0.5 cores |
| Service reservations | 6.5 GB of RAM and 4.2 cores |
| Minimum hardware configuration | 8 GB of RAM and 4 cores |
| Recommended hardware configuration | 8 GB of RAM and 6 cores |
