Cisco Prime Network Registrar Virtual Appliance
The Cisco Prime Network Registrar virtual appliance includes all the functionality available in a version of
Cisco Prime Network Registrar 9.1 installed on any Linux operating system.
This chapter describes how to install Cisco Prime Network Registrar virtual appliance and includes the
following sections:

System Requirements
There are three kits that can be used to install the virtual appliance:
• An OVA which runs on VMware ESXi 5.5 or later
• A KVM kit which runs on a KVM hypervisor running on CentOS 7.x or Red Hat (RHEL)
• A cloud image which can be deployed to Openstack
These kits are effectively identical, and in this guide, when the OVA is discussed, the discussion applies to
all three kits unless otherwise noted.
Each of these kits were created to require limited resources: 1 virtual CPU, 8 GB main memory, 6 GB swap
partition, and a 7.5 GB system partition with 5.4 GB available (free). The total disk storage required is 14
GB. You will almost certainly want to increase the size of the system disk, and giving the virtual appliance
additional virtual CPU's can increase the performance considerably. You should ensure that sufficient resources
are available on the host that you are targeting for the deployment to meet these requirements.
You must increase the resources used by the virtual appliance or it will not function successfully. There are
two different regimes: running a local cluster, or running a regional cluster and local cluster on the same
machine. The recommendations below are for running the virtual appliance(s) on a Jumpstart, but these are
also useful starting points for any local or regional cluster deployment. For a local cluster:
• CPU: 1 socket, 8 CPUs
