I only have two hosts

• HPE DL380 Gen10 servers
• 512GB each
• Two Intel Xeon Gold 6142 CPUs at 2.60GHz. These are 16 cores each
• 10GB connection to core switch
• Nimble all flash array with 10GB connections

Below is our current load. I took this screenshot on a Saturday morning so things are quiet. Even during the week, we have enough capacity to put a host in maintenance mode if we need to

Two host are plenty enough to handle our 45 VMs in terms of compute, ram, and storage. I do have one other storage array, a Nexsan which has all spinning drive. We have 4 VMs that are dedicated for video surveillance. These are backed by the Nexsan array that has huge capacity to store video files. All other VMs are backed by the Nimble array. The 4 camera servers are among the small handful that are using quite a bit of remote memory.

We have a Ruckus wireless network with two virtualized controllers and 411 access points. The two controllers are the other ones that tend to use quite a bit of remote memory
