Is there any way to install azure stack development kit in a hardware with 24GB RAM, 1TB HDD and 4Core CPU.

We have tried to modify the power shell script followed the trace to bypass the RAM and CPU minimum requirements. Then we started deployment not by wizard. We executed the script which is being called by the wizard in backend. We dint give any inputs to the script except password.

We used Azure active directory for identity and federation service.

The installation was going up to AzS-ADFS01 and it was stopped. We have check the deployment. Hyperv is is not running, It seems there is some problem in azure stack networking side I guess.

Could you please help me to install azure stack and to evaluate the experience of azure private cloud in my sandbox.

Best Regards, Radhakrishnan Rk

The Azure Stack installer will configure a couple (10) of machines with a specific amount of memory. Running all these machines together will not work on the amount of memory so the configuration needs to be changed.

The configuration for these machines can be adjusted within a file called “PoCFabricSettings.xml” that you can find in the folder “Drive:\AzureStackInstaller\PoCFabricInstaller”.

  • Not sure he is talking about Service Fabric clusters. Azure Stack is something different. – Peter Bons Aug 02 '17 at 07:43
  • In azure stack, we use ADFS for identity, Do we need to add the azure stack development kit host to any active directory domain. – Radhakrishnan Rk Aug 06 '17 at 02:08
  • i believe yes @RadhakrishnanRk https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/azure-stack/azure-stack-run-powershell-script#deploy-the-development-kit – 4c74356b41 Aug 06 '17 at 07:29

Note: Microsoft Azure Stack is a hybrid cloud platform that lets you provide Azure services from your datacenter.

Before you deploy Azure Stack Development Kit, make sure your computer meets the following requirements:

  • that's misleading, for development purposes you can use even laptops with 32gb. – 4c74356b41 Aug 02 '17 at 07:47

    Deploying Azure Stack on a laptop with 32 GB is not possible. The above hardware details is an official hardware prerequisites for Azure Stack deployment.
