It’s not indigo. Indigo is spiffy on any mac mini. It’s media and cameras.

But these old beastie dragons heat the room even with the monitors turned off. So, a 30-watt mac mini pro ...coming out tomorrow... is what’s needed in our case. I have dibbs on serial number #1.
An HA system should either be on a dedicated box or as a VM. It is usually the "other things" that cause issues or the need to run the latest version of macOS. Only once have I had an issue with Indigo running as a VM. It still ran but the client couldn't connect as it kept saying that I reached the maximum number of clients. The client is only run on two machines; one was off and the other I was getting the error on. I just rebooted the VM and all was well again.

I was, when I only had two cameras. When I went to 8, SecuritySpy just killed the mini. So I moved SS and Plex to a Mac Pro I picked up used.
