Hardware requirements for servers running AIX
IBM Director components have minimum microprocessor speed, random access
memory (RAM), and disk space requirements on servers running AIX
®
, including
System i and System p servers, and JS20, JS21, and JS22 blade servers.
When reviewing the hardware requirements, consider the following information:
v
The disk space listed is the minimum requirement for an installation using the
default selections.
v
Requirements listed for IBM Director Server do not include the database
program hardware requirements or the increased persistent storage for managed
objects.
v
On systems that do not provide display capability, such as JS20, JS21, and JS22
blade servers, you must export IBM Director Console using either the xhost
command or SSH tunneling. The IBM Director Console requirements apply to
the receiving system.
