  • 1.  Number of harvesters

    Posted Sep 05, 2025 03:35 PM

    Dear Community, I'm planning to grow my nfa infrastructure by adding more harvesters, but I don't know how many harvesters a high level infrastructure can support. Currently, my environment has 10 harvesters and 1 console.

    We have had primary and secondary installations operating with 16 and 24 harvesters without any problems.

    Typically, a standard console can support up to 25 harvesters, and even more than 100 in well-sized distributed environments. Before adding more, it is essential to evaluate the console's current performance.

    Thank you all for your response. Is there any documentation that says this?

    Jose,

    We don't document a hard limit on the maximum amount of Harvesters. I rarely see customers exceed 20 Harvesters though.

    That can be come overwhelming for the NFA Console depending on load.

    Thanks,
