Virtual Systems

The Oracle Enterprise Communications Broker (ECB) Software Only distribution is designed to operate on virtual machines running on generic, off-the-shelf servers. Refer to your version's Release Notes to see what hypervisors can support the OECB

You can install the virtual machine software on the hardware of your choice. The number of VMs supported by a server is constrained only by the resources on your system.

Minimum VM Resources

Each VM instance requires the following minimum allocation or network resources.

  • CPU cores: 5
  • Memory: 8GB RAM
  • Hard drive storage: 40GB
  • Interfaces: 4 recommended

Note:

These resources support up to 120,000 users in the database.
If your deployment requires supporting more than 120,000 entries in the user database (up to one million), use the following resources.
  • CPU cores: 8
  • Memory: 16GB RAM
  • Hard drive storage: 40GB
  • Interfaces: 4 recommended

Format Hard Drive

Run the command format-hard-drive, as described in the Oracle® Enterprise Session Director Configuration Guide immediately after successful installation.
