This page provides cluster sizing guidelines, as well as basic scale and support information, for Nexus Dashboard. The provided information has been tested and validated by Cisco, Cisco partners, or both.

If a major release of NX-OS is verified (for example, 9.3), all related minor and maintenance releases are also expected to maintain the same level of compatibility with Nexus Dashboard. However, any new software and hardware features introduced in those minor or maintenance releases is not supported by Nexus Dashboard.

NOTE: This tool provides information for a single cluster only. If your deployment requires multiple clusters (co-location scenario), you must size them separately based on the form factor and specific features enabled in each cluster.

For feedback on this tool, send email to ciscodcnapps-docfeedback@cisco.com.
