Physical Host Requirements for Virtual Servers

The recommended minimum requirements for the workstation, hosting the virtual machine(s) where StarlingX will be deployed, include:

Hardware Requirements

A workstation computer with minimally:

• Processor: x86_64 only supported architecture with BIOS enabled hardware virtualization extensions
• Cores: 8
• Memory: 32GB RAM
• Hard Disk: 500GB HDD
• Network: One network adapter with active Internet connection

Software Requirements

A workstation computer with Ubuntu 16.04 LTS 64-bit .
All other required packages will be installed by scripts in StarlingX tools repo.
