Large single-tier installation workload estimation (100 to 30,000 managed nodes, one BMC Defender Server)


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 configured.

Information
Example

A 1000-node implementation typically requires about 8 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.

Information
Example

A 1000-node implementation consisting of 5 different types of uniform devices typically requires about 5 hours to configure.

Administrative workload

Approximately 1 hour per week administrative activities.

Operational workload

Between 0.5 and 2 hours per day to resolve open tickets, depending upon the amount of data collected.

Special considerations

Installation of agents relies mainly upon automated deployment software that you supply. Initial configuration is accomplished by BMC Defender remote configuration utilities, executed in batch mode.
