So from the replies I am getting 4 CPUs and 8GB RAM would suffice as to hard disk I will allocate 150GB to start with and extended if needed later.
Many thanks ________________________________ De : Carl Wilson <carlbwil...@gmail.com> À : arslist@ARSLIST.ORG Envoyé le : Jeudi 26 septembre 2013 12h20 Objet : Re: ARS 8.1 POC ** Hi, If you turn down your SQL memory (limit to say 1.5GB) you can run a full stack install on around 8GB although it maybe a little sluggish at times (data loads, etc). Best also to up the default JVM values allocated to Mid Tier to improve performance. For a Production system, 12GB is needed on the AR Application servers (due to the number of additional plug-ins) to successfully run all the components without issue e.g. AI, NE, Recon, FTS, etc. This is now higher than the usual 8GB RAM for previous versions. I did a Sandbox system for a huge BMC customer last year where we had separated out the AR Application and had 2 Mid Tier servers - one for the ITSM Suite, and the second (a backup MT) housing Analytics and Dashboards. I would suggest a separate server if wanting to put in Analytics/Dashboards as they are memory hogs as well. ________________________________ Kind Regards, Carl Wilson http://www.missingpiecessoftware.com/ From:Action Request System discussion list(ARSList) [mailto:arslist@ARSLIST.ORG] On Behalf Of Frex Popo Sent: 26 September 2013 10:27 To: arslist@ARSLIST.ORG Subject: ARS 8.1 POC ** Hi everyone, I am about to request a VMWARE built for our Remedy 8.1 POC. I see the following recommendation in the installation manual but would like to have some thoughts from anyone who did this and if they faced any issues with performance.

Do you need all 4CPUs and 12GB to get this working? Can you still have the whole application installed and running will less than what is recommended by BMC?
