Resources
- Linux VM running CentOS, Debian, Fedora, RedHat, Suse, Ubuntu images
- CPU-optimized machine.The Domain Analysis that the vFunction Server runs is CPU intensive. For example, select a VM running Intel’s Sapphire Rapids processor or AMD’s Epyc Genoa processor
- RAM optimized for the largest App. For Apps over 20k classes, select 64gb RAM. For 4-20k classes, select 32gb RAM. If under 4k, select 16gb RAM
- 100gb in /var/lib/docker for Docker Volume Storage if configuring 1-2 Apps for analysis with the vFunction Server. Increase the Storage based on the number of applications following the table below. To move these volumes to another location, modify the vFunction Configurable Settings
- 5gb in /var/lib/docker for Docker Image storage. To move this storage to another location, modify the Docker Root Directory

Prerequisites
- Docker version 19.0.3+ installed and running to create Docker Containers for the vFunction Server
- SELinux set to a value other than, “enforced”. The values could be disabled, enforcing, permissive
- net.ipv4.ip_forwarding turned on so the vFunction Containers can communicate with one another
- Download vFunction Sudo Server Installation TGZ
- SSL Certificate and SSL Chain concatenated into a Bundle and SSL Key for Nginx (optional)
Confirmation Steps
- Confirm
podman is not included in output when running:
docker --version
- Confirm
SELINUX=enforced is not returned when running:
grep 'SELINUX' /etc/selinux/config
- Confirm
net.ipv4.ip_forward=1 is returned when running:
sysctl -a | grep net.ipv4.ip_forward
- Confirm the Application’s Namespace (packages included / imported in the Application’s code) with the Application’s Development team. For example, a vFunction App might have the Namespace of com.vfunction.app or MyCompany.app
