Sizing the Presentation Server for Infrastructure Management data collection


This topic provides sizing summaries for Infrastructure Management environments that incorporate data collection for the Presentation Server.

It is important to estimate the size of your deployment correctly because the steps you follow and the design elements vary depending on the size of the deployment. Use the following sizing and scaling recommendations to prevent oversizing or undersizing your deployment.

The values provided represent the maximum values recommended for each environment type. The number of components connected to the Presentation Server can vary depending on the deployment type and do not affect these values.

1. The total number of events per day that a Presentation Server can handle includes intelligent events, external events, and App Visibility server events.

2. The test environment had only one group with 50,000 monitor instances and all other groups had an average of 100 monitor instances only. Groups consisted of both auto-sync and manual groups.
