When deploying a virtual XtremIO Management Server (XMS), it is recommended to allocate a virtual hard drive space of 200 GB. This recommendation is based on the requirements for the operating system, the XMS application, and additional space for updates, logs, and other system files that may be generated during operation1.
The deployment process would typically involve:
Preparing a virtual environment that meets the minimum hardware specifications.
Allocating the recommended virtual hard drive space of 200 GB to ensure adequate room for the XMS application and associated data.
Proceeding with the installation of the XMS application on the prepared virtual machine.
It is important to follow the official Dell XtremIO documentation to ensure that the virtual environment is correctly configured to support the XMS application2.
