2 n.Scope Server Requirement
2.1 Sizing n.Scope for performance
n.Scope platform requires CPU, RAM, and high-performance hard drive space adapted to the total aggregated bandwidth observed by the probes attached to it.
For reference, the table below indicates the required server size based against the aggregated bandwidth:
10 Gbps

128 GB
50 GB
512 GB
25 Gbps

4 096 GB
n.Scope Specification are given for high intensity network workload, and for the full suite of software (Observability, Smart Alerting, Forensic.
Data Partition is sized for a data retention period of 90 days against the aggregated bandwidth observed by the probes.
2.2 Supported Operating System
Nano Corp officially supports n.Scope installation on Oracle Linux version 8.8. You can retrieve your preferred installation medium here
2.3 Update the server to the last version
#Upgrade to last version
dnf update -y
2.4 Install the required packages
dnf install -y coreutils gawk curl grep tar openssl dnf-utils zip unzip bash-completion nano
2.5 Clean-up pre-existing container managers and Install Docker
To avoid any problem during the installation, it is safer to clean-up any potential other container system installed by default.
#Remove pre-existing container manager.
dnf remove -y runc
#Add Docker Community Edition to DNF repos
dnf config-manager --add-repo=https://download.docker.com/linux/centos/docker-ce.repo
#Install Docker
dnf install -y docker-ce --nobest
2.6 Reboot the server
#reboot to switch on last kernel / versions
reboot
3. Deploying n.Scope server
Installation must be performed as root. Log in the console as root using `sudo su` command.
3.1 Download the Install archive to the server
cp NanocorpInstall.tar.gz ~/
cd
tar -xvzf NanocorpInstall.tar.gz
3.2 Start the installation script
Go to the installation directory and run the install script. It will create all the required files and directory for n.scope and its database to run.
cd NanocorpInstall
./n.Scope/install_n.Scope.sh --database-host {N.SCOPE SERVER HOSTNAME or IP}
3.3 Installation check
Check that there are two directories at the installation location.
ls
You should see two directories: 1. n.Scope 2. n.Probe
n.Probe repository will be used later on to install probes, rewinds and fusions.
Check that docker containers are running.
docker ps
You should see four docker containers running.
4 Deploy n.Probes, n.Rewind, n.Fusion
