System requirements


2.3 vCDM server, job server and repository serverrequirements

Overview


Apache Tomcat 8.5 (8.5.49) and 9.0 (9.0.29)

Java version:> Java 11 (recommended version: Amazon Corretto 11.0)

JDBC driver version:> 19.3.x.x (ojdbc10.jar)

E-mail server:> E-mail (SMTP) connection

Server Side A2L Check:> Windows operating system is mandatory for the installation of

A2L Check. Must be released for the specific application serverversion by the application server vendor.

Operating system:> 64 bit operating system

Java memoryrequirements

vCDM requires a certain amount of Java memory for the server. Memory in this contextmeans available memory for the Java Virtual Machine, the vCDM web applications arerunning on.The memory requirements depend on the number of concurrent users and the data whichis processed.Therefore, only rough estimates can be given. The actual memory requirements highlydepend on the individual situation of the organization and should be monitored using JMXand similar tools.Furthermore, vCDM consists of multiple web applications that scale differently withincreasing number of users. These web applications can be deployed on a singlecompute node or operated on a cluster of compute nodes. In the latter case a loadbalancer distributes the user requests to the individual nodes.Compute nodes could be physical base metal server or virtual machines.The available physical memory on the compute nodes must be higher than the memoryassigned to the Java Virtual Machines.The following rules of thumb can be applied:> Number of concurrent users: 5-10% of registered users> Minimum memory: 2 GB> Per 100 Client: Additional 2 GB> Use multiple computer nodes with > 200 users

System requirements


The following table represents typical scenarios for vCDM server deployment dependingon the number of users.

Scaling recommendation for the web applications:> Deploy vCDM main web application on all compute nodes.> Deploy vCDM job server on a single compute node.> Deploy vCDM repository on a single compute node. If local repositories are deployed

to speed up file access in distributed settings, use scaling requirements for <10 usersfor this repository server

Note: Several server instances with a session-based load balancer recommended!Session-failover is not supported. Hard disk capacity dependent on trace level optionsused. 64-bit Java (Linux or HP-UX) is recommended.

Hardware requirements Hardwarerequirements(vCDMrepositoryserver)

Standard file server

Hard disk:> The hard disk requirements can be estimated according to the

following calculation formula:<number of projects> * <number of variants per project> *<number of years in production> * 30 MB, e.g. 10 projects * 100 variants per projects -> 30 GB per year

Backup system:> Any backup system (e.g. streamer tape)

System requirements
