Storage and DRAM Requirements
-
External Storage: On devices that are equipped with external storage (SSD M.2 NVMe), the Cisco ThousandEyes Enterprise agent is installed in the external storage. The minimum external storage capacity that is required to install the Cisco ThousandEyes Enterprise agent is 8 GB. If the device does not have sufficient external storage capacity, upgrade the storage capacity to meet the minimum requirement.
Although the minimum external storage capacity that is required is 8 GB, we recommend that you provision the device with an external storage capacity of 16 GB or more. With the minimum external storage capacity, you may need to manually clean up files while upgrading the software image on the device.
-
Bootflash: On devices that are not equipped with external storage, the Cisco ThousandEyes Enterprise agent is installed on the bootflash. The minimum bootflash capacity that is required to install the Cisco ThousandEyes Enterprise agent is 8 GB. If the device does not have sufficient bootflash capacity, upgrade the storage capacity to meet the minimum requirement.
Important
On the ISR1100X-6G, the Cisco ThousandEyes Enterprise agent is installed on the bootflash. For this particular device model, the minimum bootflash capacity that is required to install the agent is 16 GB.
Although the minimum bootflash capacity that is required is 8 GB, we recommend that you provision the device with an bootflash capacity of 16 GB or more. With the minimum bootflash capacity, you may need to manually clean up files while upgrading the software image on the device.
-
DRAM: The minimum DRAM capacity that is required to install the Cisco ThousandEyes Enterprise agent is 8 GB. If a device does not have the minimum DRAM capacity that is required to install the Cisco ThousandEyes Enterprise agent, upgrade the DRAM to meet the minimum requirement.
-
Cisco ThousandEyes Enterprise agent can be deployed with other applications if the device has the resources (CPU, memory, and storage) to run the other applications. If the available resources are not sufficient to run the other applications, IOX generates an error message and does not run the other applications.
To host the Cisco ThousandEyes Enterprise agent, a Cisco IOS XE Catalyst SD-WAN device must have a minimum of 8 GB DRAM. If you wish host additional applications such as UTD and DRE on the same device, we recommend that you provision the device with at least a 16 GB DRAM.
