System Requirements for Linux Servers

For a distributed configuration, CA Network Flow Analysis supports installing the Harvester on Linux servers that meet the following requirements:

• Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5.5 or 5.6 on a 64-bit processor
• English, Chinese (Simplified), French (France), or Japanese language
• Two 2.26-GHz quad-core processors
• 12 GB RAM
• Six 300-GB, 10,000-RPM SAS hard drives in RAID 5 configuration
• 1-Gb Ethernet port
• Mozilla Firefox version 3.x-10.x

If you do not have enough available space in the /tmp directory and you cannot configure it, relocate the directory. Export the IATEMPDIR environment variable (for the Install Anywhere temporary directory) to set a new location, and select a directory with sufficient space.

Notes:

• CA Network Flow Analysis 9.1.1 supports installation on servers with IPv4 addresses. Installation is not supported at this time on servers with IPv6 addresses.
• The requirements described in this section apply to both physical and virtual deployments.

Important: CA Network Flow Analysis requires DNS resolution. If DNS is not configured, add system entries to the /etc/hosts file on your server manually.
