System Requirements for OVA Deployment

Installing CloudControl as an OVA requires the following per node: 

• Enterprise Editions of VMware vSphere, from vSphere 6.5 update 3 to vSphere 6.7 updated 3e, and ESXi versions 6.5 or greater (must support VM hardware version 13).

• Enough resources to create the CloudControl appliance with: 

  • 4 virtual cores (vCPU)

  • 16 GB of memory

  • 200 GB of free datastore space

System Requirements for AMI Deployment

Before installing CloudControl in AWS, please note the following: 

• CloudControl uses 16GB RAM and has 4 CPUs. Please choose an instance type that has the resource capacity for this application.
• The following console accounts use the instance ID of the EC2 instance as the default password: 
  • htadmin
  • htsupport
  • htrescue

  Note: You will be prompted to change the htadmin password on first use.

• If you plan to use CloudControl to manage Kubernetes as well as AWS Accounts, you must deploy CloudControl in a VPC that has access to your Kubernetes infrastructure.
