Matrix Software Requirements

The operating system and PolyServe software must be installed

consistently across the servers in the matrix. When configuring your

servers, you should be aware of the following requirements:

• Operating systems from different vendors cannot be mixed in a single

matrix. All servers must be running either RHEL4 or SLES9.

• All servers must be running versions of the operating system and

kernel that are supported by Matrix Server. The operating system

architecture must be the same on all servers (either 32-bit or 64-bit).
