Small, Two-tier deployment workload estimation (200 to 100,000 managed nodes, with 2 to 100 BMC Defender Servers)

Hours to install

Approximately 0.1 hours for server + 4 hours to configure and implement automated deployment + 0.1 hour for each device that cannot be remotely installed.

Information
Example

A 10,000-node implementation consisting of three different BMC Defender Servers typically requires about 24 hours to install.

Hours to initially configure

Approximately 1 hour to create remote configuration batch files for each managed device type. Approximately 0.1 hours per managed node that is manually configured + time to execute remote configuration batch files. Approximately 1-hour special configuration for each BMC Defender Server.

Information
Example

A 10,0000-node implementation consisting of 5 different types of uniform devices, managed by three different BMC Defender Servers typically requires about 8 hours to initially configure.

Administrative workload

Approximately 2 hours per week administrative activities, per BMC Defender Server implementation.

Operational workload

Approximately 2 hours per day per BMC Defender Server to resolve open tickets, depending upon the amount of data collected.

Special considerations

Installation and initial configuration of BMC Defender Servers are performed manually. Installation of agents relies mainly upon automated deployment software supplied by the customer. BMC Defender remote configuration utilities accomplish initial configuration.
