Description

Hi Foreman Team,

We are looking for your help to identify Hardware requirements as below:

Total numbers of server that we would like to handle through foreman are 30000 servers with multiple puppet masters integrated with the smart proxies with central foreman instance that have external MySql Server.

What Compute capacity (RAM,CPU and Disk) required by External MySql server ?
What Compute capacity (RAM,CPU and Disk) required by central foreman instance?

Appreciate your help on this.

https://community.theforeman.org/c/support would be a much better place to get advice on this.

I think most people would recommend postgresql over mysql (and you already need postgresql for puppetdb).
With 30,000 hosts you're probably going to need multiple loadbalanced foreman instances.

I agree with Alex. The support forum gets a lot more attention from other users
