Hi,

Does anyone know exactly how many nodes can I install by Foundation 4.5 at one time?

As I am going to write some internal docs related to Foundation so I do want to know.

 

Thanks.

Hi hienle

I was searching about it and it is really limited by network bandwidth between Foundation and all the parallel nodes. In the past the limit was 20 nodes max but this limitation was removed a long time ago.

One of our top customers did 32 nodes from a single foundation instance over 10Gb, and it took about 40m per instance. They gave foundation plenty of resources.

 

Hope this helps.
