    Hello

    I know is the requirement but the clients wants to know why.

    His old clearplass was just using 50GB and he doesnt know why he would need going from 500GB to 1 TB for a new clearpass installation.   The recommened before was 500GB and he wasnt even using 1/4 of it.

     

    i could think if he was using maybe all features  which he is not, he is just using it for guest.   But he wants a reply from aruba for this 

    Can anyone from Product and development asnwer me this ? the real reason behind this? i mean if its possible to know this information. 

     

    Cheers

    Carlos

    I had a call with Aruba TAC couple weeks ago, and the issue was due a disk space (I was running a VM for Lab only, so I put smaller disk), anyway, he said that in the new version, the OS create two partition in the second disk, which means if you have 1 TB space, it will create two 500GB partitions. Maybe that is the reason they double the new requeriments. It's just a guess.
