# NetBox Enterprise Embedded Cluster Requirements | ||
|
||
### Host system requirements | ||
|
||
The following are the _minimum_ system requirements for a deployment of NetBox Enterprise running two replicas. For larger environments with more replicas, additional resources should be allocated. | ||
|
||
- 4 Virtual CPU (vCPU) | ||
- 8 GB Memory (RAM) | ||
- 40 GB SSD free disk space | ||
|
||
### Host operating system | ||
|
||
- Linux (Kernel versions 4.3 and above) | ||
|
||
### Architecture | ||
|
||
- x86-64 |

# NetBox Enterprise KOTS Installation | ||
|
||
### Deploying NetBox | ||
|
||
Access the NetBox Enterprise admin console and configure NetBox | ||
|
||
Open the provided URL in a browser. A prompt will require the password created in Step 2: | ||
|
||
![enterprise-admin-console](../images/netbox-enterprise/admin-console.png) | ||
|
||
A wizard will guide the configuration of NetBox for the environment: | ||
|
||
![configure-netbox-enterprise](../images/netbox-enterprise/configure-netbox-enterprise.png) | ||
|
||
Required configuration information includes: | ||
|
||
- Version of NetBox to deploy: | ||
|
||
![netbox-enterprise-version](../images/netbox-enterprise/netbox-enterprise-version.png) | ||
|
||
- Built-in or external PostgreSQL: | ||
|
||
![netbox-enterprise-postgres](../images/netbox-enterprise/netbox-enterprise-postgres.png) | ||
|
||
- Built-in or external S3-Compatible object store: | ||
|
||
![netbox-enterpise-storage](../images/netbox-enterprise/netbox-enterprise-s3.png) | ||
|
||
- Advanced settings to configure plugins and SSO remote authentication: | ||
|
||
![netbox-enterprise-overides](../images/netbox-enterprise/netbox-enterprise-overides.png) | ||
|
||
The deployment of NetBox Enterprise will then proceed: | ||
|
||
![netbox-enterprise-deploy](../images/netbox-enterprise/netbox-enterprise-deploy.png) | ||
|
||
The `Unavailable` status will change to `Ready` once the deployment is complete and NetBox has fully initialized: | ||
|
||
![netbox-enterprise-ready](../images/netbox-enterprise/netbox-enterprise-ready.png) | ||
|
||
### Verify | ||
|
||
NetBox Enterprise should now be fully deployed. | ||
|
||
![netbox-enterprise-login](../images/netbox-enterprise/netbox-enterprise-login.png) | ||
|
||
![netbox-enterprise-home](../images/netbox-enterprise/netbox-enterprise-app-home.png) |

# NetBox Enterprise KOTS Requirements | ||
|
||
### System requirements | ||
|
||
To install NetBox Enterprise on an existing cluster, the cluster must meet the following requirements: | ||
|
||
#### Admin console minimum requirements | ||
|
||
Existing clusters that have LimitRanges specified must support the following minimum requirements for the Admin Console: | ||
|
||
- **CPU resources and memory**: The Admin Console pod requests 100m CPU resources and 100Mi memory | ||
- **Disk space**: The Admin Console requires a minimum of 5GB of disk space on the cluster for persistent storage, including 4GB for S3-compatible object store | ||
- **1GB for rqlite PersistentVolume**: The Admin Console requires 1GB for a rqlite StatefulSet to store version history, application metadata, and other small amounts of data needed to manage the application | ||
|
||
#### Supported operating systems | ||
|
||
The following are the supported operating systems for nodes: | ||
|
||
- Linux AMD64 | ||
- Linux ARM64 | ||
|
||
#### Available StorageClass | ||
|
||
The cluster must have an existing StorageClass available. KOTS creates the required stateful components using the default StorageClass in the cluster. | ||
|
||
#### Kubernetes version compatibility | ||
|
||
The version of Kubernetes running on the cluster must be compatible with the version of KOTS: | ||
|
||
|KOTS Versions |Kubernetes Compatibility| | ||
|--- |--- | | ||
|v1.105.2 and later |v1.29, v1.28, v1.27 | | ||
|v1.102.1 to v1.105.1 |v1.28, v1.27 | | ||
|v1.100.0 to v1.102.0 |v1.27 | | ||
|
||
#### OpenShift version compatibility | ||
|
||
For Red Hat OpenShift clusters, the version of OpenShift must use a supported Kubernetes version. | ||
|
||
#### Port forwarding | ||
|
||
To support port forwarding, Kubernetes clusters require that the SOcket CAT (socat) package is installed on each node. | ||
|
||
### RBAC Requirements | ||
|
||
The user that runs the installation command must have at least the minimum role-based access control (RBAC) permissions that are required by KOTS. If the user does not have the required RBAC permissions, then an error message displays: `Current user has insufficient privileges to install Admin Console`. | ||
|
||
The required RBAC permissions vary depending on if the user attempts to install KOTS with cluster-scoped access or namespace-scoped access: | ||
|
||
- Cluster-scoped RBAC Requirements (Default) | ||
- Namespace-scoped RBAC Requirements | ||
|
||
#### Cluster-scoped RBAC Requirements (Default) | ||
|
||
By default, KOTS requires cluster-scoped access. With cluster-scoped access, a Kubernetes ClusterRole and ClusterRoleBinding are created that grant KOTS access to all resources across all namespaces in the cluster. | ||
|
||
To install KOTS with cluster-scoped access, the user must meet the following RBAC requirements: | ||
|
||
- The user must be able to create workloads, ClusterRoles, and ClusterRoleBindings. | ||
- The user must have cluster-admin permissions to create namespaces and assign RBAC roles across the cluster. | ||
|
||
#### Namespace-scoped RBAC Requirements | ||
|
||
KOTS can be installed with namespace-scoped access rather than the default cluster-scoped access. With namespace-scoped access, a Kubernetes Role and RoleBinding are automatically created that grant KOTS permissions only in the namespace where it is installed. Please contact us for more details. |
