There are system limits for an HCP VM system.

For a standard HCP VM system configuration, the following limits are supported:
  • HCP VM nodes: 40
  • Data LUNs: Limited by the number of device slots available for LUNs in the VirtIO-blk para-virtualized storage back-end, which depends on the number of other devices configured for the guest OS that also use the VirtIO-blk back-end. In a typical HCP configuration, 17 slots are available.
  • Virtual machine disks: 15.90 TB
For an HCP VM system small-instance configuration, the following limits are supported:
  • HCP VM nodes: 16
  • Data LUNs: Limited by the number of device slots available for LUNs in the VirtIO-blk para-virtualized storage back-end, which depends on the number of other devices configured for the guest OS that also use the VirtIO-blk back-end. In a typical HCP configuration, 17 slots are available.
  • Virtual machine disks: 15.90 TB

For more information about the supported limits for the file system partition used for HCP storage pools on a KVM host, see the Linux documentation.
