    Since I run the largest smg cluster on planet earth, I recommend 500 gb space (thick provisioned), 16 cpu, and 64 gb of ram. That is a spec that will do most anything.

    Take care.

    We use 1TB for the control center appliance. This is because of all the logs and quarantines that we keep around, plus the SMG CC needs extra free space to back itself up (even for an FTP backup, because it first creates the backup file locally and then FTPs it out)
