The cell environment has two main components:
- Cell Manager - a DPOD server (virtual or physical) that manages all Federated Cell Members (FCMs) as well as providing central DPOD services such as Web Console, reports, alerts, etc.
- Federated Cell Member (FCM) - a DPOD server (usually physical with local high speed storage) that includes Store data nodes and agents (Syslog and WS-M) for collecting, parsing and storing data. There could be one or more federated cell members per cell.
...
- DPOD cell manager and federated cell members must be with be with the same version (minimum version is v1.0.8.5).
- DPOD cell manager can be installed in both Appliance Mode or Non-Appliance Mode with Medium Load architecture type, as detailed in the Hardware and Software Requirements. The manager server can be both virtual or physical.
- Physical DPOD federated cell member (FCM) must be installed in Non-appliance Mode with High_20dv architecture type, as detailed in the Hardware and Software Requirements.
- Virtual DPOD federated cell member (FCM) must be installed in Non-appliance Mode with Medium architecture type or higher, as detailed in the Hardware and Software Requirements and in Virtual Cell Environment Installation.
- All DPOD federated cell member (FCM) must have the exactly the same resources such as CPUs, Memory RAM, disk type and storage capacity.
- Each cell component (manager / FCM) should have two network interfaces:
- External interface - for DPOD users to access the Web Console (on the cell manager) and for communication between DPOD and Monitored Gateways (on both the cell manager and the members).
- Internal interface - for internal DPOD components inter-communication (should be a 10Gb Ethernet interface).
- Network ports should be opened in the network firewall as detailed below:

Cell Manager Installation
Prerequisites
- DPOD cell manager should be installed in Non-Appliance Mode with Medium Load architecture type, as detailed in the Hardware and Software Requirements. The manager server can be both virtual or physical.
- Install the following software package (RPM) on the cell manager: bc
Installation
Install DPOD as described in one of the following installation procedures:
...
- For Appliance Mode: Appliance Installation
- In this mode, the user is prompted to choose the data disk type (SSD / non SSD)
...
- . Choose the cell members disk type (should be SSD) instead of the cell manager disk type.
- For Non-appliance Mode: Non-Appliance Installation Procedure
...
As described in the prerequisites section, the cell manager should have two network interfaces.
...
In this mode, the user is prompted to choose the IP address for the Web Console
...
. Choose the IP address of the external network interface.
After DPOD installation is complete, the user should execute the following operating system performance optimization script:
