The following table provides a summary of the minimum hardware requirements on the server where you want to install SupportAssist Enterprise.

NOTE: For monitoring more than 100 devices in your environment, Dell recommends that you install SupportAssist Enterprise on server that meets the specified hardware requirements. Periodic collections (required for ProSupport Plus reporting) from more than 100 devices may result in a high processor or memory utilization on the monitoring server. This high resource utilization may affect other applications that are running on the monitoring server, if the resources are shared with other applications.
