If you want to install the Central Node component on the "Brest" or "RED Virtualization" virtual platform and use the KEDR or KATA+KEDR functionality, you need to increase the minimum number of logical cores by 20%. If you want to mitigate Spectre or Meltdown type vulnerabilities at the level of the hypervisor OS, you need to additionally increase the minimum number of logical cores by 1.5 times. The other hardware requirements for virtual servers are similar to the requirements for physical servers, listed in the tables above.
