Hardware Requirements

The minimum hardware requirements for installing RiskMinder include:

• Requirements for RiskMinder with the database on a single system:
  • RAM: 2 GB
  • Hard Drive Space: 10 GB
  • Processor: 2.4 GHz
• Requirements for RiskMinder with the database on a different system:
  • RAM: 1 GB
  • Hard Drive Space: 300 MB
  • Processor: 2.4 GHz

Note: Hardware resource requirements vary substantially for different applications and usage patterns. It is recommended that you load-test your site to determine the optimal memory that is required for the installation. While you perform load-testing, you must remember that some operating system utilities for monitoring memory can overstate memory usage (partially because of the representation of shared memory). The preferred method for determining memory requirements is by monitoring the improvement in performance after adding more RAM/physical memory in the load test. See your platform vendor documentation for information about configuring memory and processor resources for testing purposes.
