MayaScale utilizes instances with local NVMe devices and provides robust NVMe over Fabrics platform to clients that support NVMe/TCP. Deploy MayaScale in 2-node HA configuration if the NVMe devices are temporary storage devices to safe guard against data loss in the event of interuption.

Storage Optimized Instances
Choose storage optimized virtual machine (VM) sizes Lsv3, Lasv3, and Lsv2-series that feature high-throughput, low latency, and directly mapped local NVMe storage. These VM series come in sizes from 8 to 80 vCPU. There are 8 GiB of memory per vCPU, and one 1.92TB NVMe SSD device per 8 vCPUs, with up to 19.2TB (10x1.92TB) available on the largest VM sizes. Since these local NVMe disks are ephemeral, data will be lost on these disks if you stop/deallocate your VM but MayaScale in 2-node HA solves this problem.

To avoid public network exposure of port 2020 it is recommended to use ssh tunneling with port forwarding as follows ssh -i ~/.ssh/mayascale.pem azureuser@<mayascale1-public-ip> -L 2020:localhost:2020 |
Next proceed to Configure MayaScale
