Resource Requirements for Syncing Automation Content

Updated

Prerequisites

Before you can sync collections to your private automation hub (a component of your Ansible Automation Platform), you must configure your private automation hub to communicate with the automation hub Ansible service on console.redhat.com. You can do that by following the steps in our product documentation: Configure Ansible automation hub remote repositories to sync content. Then, create a requirements file to specify the collections you want to sync.

When you are ready to sync collections, consult the metrics below to understand what resources you will need to sync successfully.
