The following are the UNIX resource requirements:
- A file system on your installation machine must have the required amount of free space for the Rational Synergy installation directory. This requirement is outlined in the Rational Synergy Installation Guide for UNIX, or Rational Synergy Installation Guide for UNIX on Oracle.
- Typically, the upgrade procedures require that the previous installation remains in place while the new installation and upgrade are performed, so sufficient disk space for both installations is required.
- Configure your server machines with the disk space, memory, swap space, shared memory, and semaphores. This requirement is outlined in the Rational Synergy Installation Guide for UNIX, or Rational Synergy Installation Guide for UNIX on Oracle.
- On some UNIX systems, NFS caches are not updated even as a result of local activity. Doing so can cause problems if you run an interface and engine on some UNIX systems with the file system portion of the Rational Synergy database NFS-mounted from another system. To solve this problem, mount the database file system with NFS caching turned off.
