This topic lists the supported vNIOS appliances that can be deployed in Oracle Cloud Infrastructure.

You have the option to configure the storage in one of the following ways: 250 GB for virtual appliances running on NIOS versions prior to 9.0.1, 500 GB for NIOS versions 9.0.1 and later, or a value between 150 GB and 2.5 TB configured during the first boot if the vNIOS instances are set up with resizable images.

# Guidelines and Recommendations

- Infoblox recommends that you allocate a minimum of 250 GB of additional disk space for reporting storage requirements.
- The Oracle Cloud Infrastructure Console UI has options to assign the required number of OCPU cores and memory to the selected shape of a vNIOS instance.
- If a vNIOS instance is running on a NIOS version prior to 9.0.1, the disk size will be set to 250 GB.
