7 Scalability and performance of Dell EMC OpenManage Essentials version 2.5
4 Generic recommendations
Based on the analysis of the performance data collected for the various features tested, Dell EMC
recommends the following for optimal OME performance:
• The minimum hardware and software mentioned in Table 1 must be used to ensure best performance
of OME. Higher hardware specifications such as increase in processor cores or RAM, will yield better
performance than that described in this technical white paper.
• Configure the max server memory of SQL Server based on the available system resources. Refer to
this MSDN article for more information.
• OME must be installed by using a remote database when the number of managed system is greater
than 500, and when the hardware specification is similar to what is provided in Table 1.
• Domain Name System (DNS) must be configured such that OME is able to resolve the hostname of
all the managed systems.
