Capacity and scalability specifications

Last Updated : Sep 24, 2025 |

Before installing CMS, review the server capacity requirements outlined in this section. You can also find general system capacity information for CMS.

CMS encrypts server/client connections, where the client is the CMS Supervisor PC or Web Client. When FIPS 140-2 encryption is enabled, it uses additional CPU and memory to support more complex ciphers. Therefore, the following CMS capacities are reduced by 10%:

  • Concurrent supervisor sessions

  • Reports for each supervisor session

  • Report elements

  • Average refresh rate (30 seconds), including a 10% reduction in the listed 3-second refresh rate capacities

  1. You can view the total number of active CMS Supervisor client sessions using this value.

  2. If your storage exceeds 800 GB, create additional disk volumes.

  3. You can access up to three real-time reports and the specified amount of historical data.

  4. To understand the different report elements, see Report elements.
