Since the server on Linux can only be run on a 64-bit OS (and that is a technical restriction), the supported OS for the Mid-Tier (which parallels the server) is only the 64-bit Linux OS's. -David J.

That seems like an odd requirements combination, since I would expect a 32-bit JVM to need 32-bit native libraries (the Remedy API libraries). Any idea why it needs to run on a 64-bit OS? For example, are there real technical reasons for this requirement, or was it more of a business requirement based on the installer and other aspects of AR System requiring 64-bit support, thus giving everything a common platform to run on - that is, more for the sake of consistency than for real compatibility?

In AR System 7.5.00, a Linux box running the Mid-Tier must be using a 64-bit version of the Linux OS. However, on that 64-bit OS, the mid-tier is running inside a 32-bit JVM. -David J.
