System Requirements
The following subsections list the hardware and software required for the
basic SPECTRUM Network Management package on each of the
supported platforms. Since SPECTRUM may be configured with more
than one SpectroGRAPH, the suggested memory requirements for the
Graphical User Interface and SpectroSERVER are presented separately.
Suggested Minimum RAM and Suggested Minimum Available Disk Space
requirements are presented both together and separately. All amounts
shown are in megabytes.
In the listings of platform-specific system requirements in this section,
the following three definitions should be noted:
1 RAM is the amount of physical memory installed in the system. The
amount of RAM is reported by the console upon powerup.
2 Available Disk Space is the amount of space available after the OS
and all other applications have been loaded. A large database or event
and alarm log archive files requires additional space. SPECTRUM with
NetVisualyzer also requires more memory than listed in the platform-
specific tables.
Caution:
Caution:
The loading and operation of both SpectroSERVER and
SpectroGRAPH on the same physical workstations may not be
advisable due to the complexities of polling frequency, device
type, and number of devices within a network. It is impossible to
define all possible configurations, and therefore impossible to
determine the system requirements for all possible
configurations. Aprisma suggests the figures in this document as
an absolute minimum for installation and operation. Consult
your Field Engineer or SPECTRUM Support Representative for
assistance in determining the ideal configuration for your
network.
