SGD Gateway Requirements and Support

2.3. SGD Gateway Requirements and Support

This section describes the supported platforms and requirements for the SGD Gateway.

2.3.1. Supported Installation Platforms for the SGD Gateway

The supported installation platforms for the SGD Gateway host are shown in the following table.

Operating System Supported Versions

Oracle Solaris on SPARC platforms Solaris 10 8/11 (update 10)

Solaris 11

Oracle Solaris on x86 platforms Solaris 10 8/11 (update 10)

Solaris 11

Oracle Linux (32-bit and 64-bit) 5.7

5.8

6.2

6.3

Oracle products certified on Oracle Linux are also certified and supported on Red Hat Enterprise Linux due

to implicit compatibility between both distributions. Oracle does not run any additional testing on Red Hat

Enterprise Linux products.

By default, the SGD Gateway is configured to support a maximum of 100 simultaneous HTTP connections

and 512 simultaneous Adaptive Internet Protocol (AIP) connections. The JVM memory size is optimized

for this number of connections. Appendix C of the Oracle Secure Global Desktop Gateway Administration

Guide for Release 4.7 has details of how to tune the Gateway for the expected number of users.

2.3.1.1. Virtualization Support

The supported installation platforms for the SGD Gateway are supported on a Type 1 (bare metal)

hypervisor or a Type 2 (hosted) hypervisor, for example Oracle VM VirtualBox, VMWare, or Oracle VM

Server for SPARC (previously called Sun Logical Domains or LDoms).

On Oracle Solaris platforms, installation in zones is supported. The SGD Gateway can be installed either in

the global zone, or in one or more non-global zones. Installation in both the global zone and a non-global

zone is not supported.

2.3.1.2. Retirements to Supported Gateway Installation Platforms

The following table shows the SGD Gateway installation platforms that have been retired.
