System Requirements and Prerequisites
To un-tar the UNIX installation file, it is advisable to use GNU tar as the other tars may create problems.
System and Software Requirements
The system requirements for the FioranoMQ Server are summarized in the following table.
Component | Requirement |
|---|---|
| Platform | FioranoMQ Server and clients can run on any platform that supports JRE 1.8. Supported platforms include Microsoft Windows, Sun Solaris, Red Hat Linux, IBM AIX and HP-UX. |
Hard disk drive | 300 MB of free disk space is required for the full installation of FioranoMQ. |
Memory | A minimum of 2 GB of RAM is recommended for optimal performance of FioranoMQ for a mid-range installation. |
CPU | A minimum of 200 MHz CPU is required for basic installation. |
Temporary Storage Space Requirements
For a Wizard-based installation, FioranoMQ uses a temporary directory in which it extracts all the files necessary to install the FioranoMQ Server on the target system. The extracted files are deleted from the temporary directory at the end of the installation process. A minimum free disk space of around 300 MB in the drive that has the configured Temp directory is required for installing the FioranoMQ Server.
Software Requirements
FioranoMQ Server, clients, and tools require a Java Virtual Machine (JVM) for their operations. The minimal JDK version that is used to run FioranoMQ and associated tools is 1.8. Fiorano recommends using the 64-bit version of JVM to avail maximum heap usage by Fiorano Process on a 64-bit platform. For user convenience, a default version of Sun's JRE is packaged with the Windows installer.
File Descriptors
On UNIX platforms, the number of File Descriptors required by the server process must be increased beyond the default value. The recommended value is 10,000 (The number of file handles). The launch scripts for UNIX automatically do this if they are given the required authorization.
