Sept 21
We just went live with the current sprint. And some cool features in this release..
Compare with one less node
- A second set of dials with utilization% on selecting ‘compare’ checkbox(screenshot below)
- Helps compare and analyze the scenario and the state(N+1/N+0) with one less node than the optimal recommended
- Avoid extra steps to go to manual to replicate the above
Bulk edits – Workload section
- Make bulk edits/changes to workload attributes like vCPU:pcore ratio, or User type(in VDI) etc, particularly helpful for imported workloads
- Couple of weeks ago, went live with bulk edit for common section [RF, Compression, ECX, snapshot etc]
- With this, all inputs to a workload can be edited in bulk
- Currently most major workloads supported for bulk edit : Server Virtualization, VDI, Files and Cluster/Raw
Encryption changes
- Overall enhancement to Encryption support in Sizer with latest encryption licenses and add-ons
- Option to choose SW and HW encryption and Sizer adds appropriate encryption license
- Add-on encryption licenses support for non AOS [Files/Objects/VDI core/Robo]
Other enhancements / Platforms
- Sizing stats : Usable remaining capacity adjusted for RF and N+1
- HPE DX: Power calculation and checks for x170r/x190r nodes on DX2200/2600
hi everyone
I’m super excited about the 2nd dials. Very often SE’s go to pain of changing node count to see what is ilike with one less node (N+1 vs N+0)Then you want to change something in the original sizing and have to go back and see the impact on N+0We make it easy. By the way that is an official sizing at N+0. We don’t just take a percentage difference but do a real sizing and apply all the rules but just with one less node.
