System Reporter Requirements
Supported System Reporter Host Platforms
Component Requirement
Operating System Microsoft Windows Server 2008 (32- or 63-bit), or
Microsoft Windows 2003 (32- or 64-bit), or
Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5.4 (32-bit only if using Oracle, 32- or 64-bit
otherwise).
Processor Intel Pentium 4 processor, 3 GHz or higher. Multi-core processors are
recommended both for the database server and for the System
Reporter server, especially when sampling a large configuration
(large number of InServ systems or InServ systems with a large
number of objects). See system sizing spreadsheet.
Memory 1 GB. See system sizing spreadsheet.
Disk Space At least 20GB of available disk space. See system sizing spreadsheet.
The system size (CPU cores, memory size and disk space) above is the minimum required for System
Reporter. However, the resources required depend substantially on the number and size of InServ
systems being sampled as well as the sampling parameters. The CD includes a system sizing
spreadsheet (SR_Sizing.xls) that should be used to determine the number of CPU cores, the amount
of memory and the database space needed. Instructions for using the spreadsheet are included in
the spreadsheet.
