convert or upgrade small to medium appliance NAC / XMC / Anlaytics

[info_systemhaus]

Hello Comunity,

we made a POC last year with 8.0.5.18 Netsight / Purview / NAC on a customer location...

Now .. "we will buy ist . it works great" ..
"please convert it to medium size because we need analytics "
but no "New install" because we did a lot of integration ...

How can i upgrade or convert a small appliance to a medium appliance ?
Should i convert it alone or can you combine this with an upgrade to last version ?

[info_systemhaus]

that would be perfect ,
but can you or anyone from extreme confirm that only change of ressources und Limits will unlock the possibility to use Analytics ?

is the difference from Small to medium to large/Enterprise only the amount of ressources ?
That would be true if it´s an "elastic appiance" .. i know that with EWC it´s correct but i found never Information about XMC/ NAC /Analytics

Try to set the CPU/RAM according to the specs in the datasheet:

change the nsserver.cfg XMS and XMX so java uses the resources
