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

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

A 1000-node implementation typically requires about 8 hours to install.

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

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

Approximately 1 hour per week of administrative activities

Installing the agents relies mainly on the automated deployment software that you supply.

For initial configuration, you can use BMC Defender Server remote configuration utilities, executed in batch mode.
