Creating SDX Administrative Domains
Apr 09, 20 15
NetScaler SDX administrative domains feature helps you to create multiple administrative domains. You can use the
administrative domains to segregate resources for different departments. Administrative domains can therefore improve
control over resources, and the resources can be distributed among various domains for optimal use.
A NetScaler SDX appliance is shipped with fixed resources, such as CPU cores, data throughput, memory, disk space, SSL
chips, and a specific number of instances that can be provisioned. The number of instances that you can create depends on
the license.
A NetScaler SDX appliance supports up to three levels of administrative domains. When the appliance is shipped, all the
resources are allocated to owner.
Any administrative domains that you create are subdomains of the owner domain. In each case, the subdomain's resources
are allocated from the parent domain's pool of resources. The users in an administrative domain have access to that
domain's resources. They do not have access to the resources of other domains at the same hierarchical level, nor to the
parent-domain resources that have not been specifically allocated to their domain. However, users in a parent domain can
access the resources of that domain's subdomains.
Examples of Allocating Resources to Subdomains
Table 1 lists the resources of a root domain named
nsroot
(which is the default name of the root domain). The SDX
administrator can allocate these resources to subdomains. In this case, the administrator can allocate a maximum of, for
example, 10 CPU cores and 840 GB of disk space.
Table 1. Owner Resources
CPU core 10
Throughput (Mbps) 18500
Memory (MB) 87300
Disk Space (GB) 840
SSL Chips 36
Instances 36
Table 2 lists the resources allocated a subdomain named
Test
. This subdomain has been allocated 5 of its parent domain's
10 CPU cores, leaving 5 cores that can be allocated to other subdomains of Owner.

CPU core 5
