To help determine the correct sizing for a Tranzman Appliance, it is recommended that the Tranzman Recorder is used to help better understand the current environment.
A single Tranzman Appliance can be used to convert many environments, the following considerations need to be taken into account when sizing it.
RAM |
| RAM Size | Use Case |
| Minimum 2GB | Using appliance only for assessments |
| Minimum 4GB | Migrating Same Vendor |
| Minimum 8GB | Migrating Cross Vendor |
 |
Note: Additional 1GB of RAM is required for every tape drive connected to the Appliance |
CPU |
- Minimum 2 core Intel CPU is required (for Same Vendor or Assessment).
- Minimum 4 core Intel CPU is required (for Cross Vendor).
|
Note: Additional 1 core for every tape drive connected to the Appliance | ONLY INTEL processors have been tested and are supported. |
Network |
- 1Gbit minimum connection required (for Same Vendor migration and recovery on Demand).
- 10Gbit connection recommended for Cross Vendor to ensure that tape drive are kept running at a reasonable speed.
- If multiple links are used, aggregation is needed to provide maximum throughput.
- Multiple connections may be required if there are multiple tape drives.
Ports |
The appliance needs to communicate over the network. If you have internal firewalls, you must allow the following connections or the appliance cannot function.

Storage |
- Minimum 3GB local disk for OS Installation.
- Local/SAN attached disks needed for temporary staging of converted images, sized according to volume of recoveries to accommodate at any one time. The following is for guidance only, it would be recommended that you use the Tranzman Recorder and Stone Ram Consulting Services to correctly size the volumes.
