Abstract

The Scale Settings textual UI menu item enables scaling up resources for CPU, memory, and disk size.

Using the textual UI menu in your VM, you can easily scale up your Cortex XSOAR hardware environment based on your organizational and usage growth.

  1. Choose the scale you want and make sure your hardware resources meet the system requirements. For more information, see System requirements.

    Note

    If you are working with more than one node, all the nodes in the cluster must meet the same hardware requirements.

  2. From the textual UI menu, select Scale Settings.

  3. Select Scan scale options to run a scan to evaluate the cluster recommended scale.

    Based on the results, the system indicates the current scale size and gives you the option to increase the scale size.

    The supported scale sizes are:

    • Small: 16 CPU, 64 GB memory, 1 TB hard disk (1TB = 1024 GB)

    • Medium: 32 CPU, 128 GB memory, 1.5 TB hard disk

    • Large: 48 CPU, 192 GB memory, 2 TB hard disk

    Note

    The recommended scale is determined by the node with the least hardware resources.
