Why each option
Cortex XDR agent 7.2 for Windows requires a minimum of 2GB RAM to function correctly.
According to the official Palo Alto Networks system requirements for Cortex XDR Agent 7.2, Windows endpoints must have a minimum of 2GB RAM. This ensures the agent has sufficient memory to execute its security processes and protections efficiently.
While 4GB might be a common system recommendation, it is not the *minimum* RAM requirement specified for the agent itself.
3GB is not the specified minimum RAM requirement for Cortex XDR agent 7.2 on Windows endpoints.
512MB is significantly below the minimum requirement for Cortex XDR agent 7.2; 2GB is the minimum, not the recommended for a 512MB minimum.
