Hi

We want to upgrade side by side 8.2 to 9.6 without adding any component.
In our 8.2 environment we have 3 IS, 2 brokers and 1 MWS.
So in our 9.6 environment we’ll have same components.

I’m wondering if it was necessary to upgrade processor Frequency, RAM amount …
In software Ag documentation, I’ve found some documentation on logical prerequisites(JVM / OS Version / …) but nothing on physical prerequisites.

Thanks for your help

Kindly refer the system requirements guide from SAG empower for hardware related components.

Thank you M@he$h for your response, but I disagree with you.
System requirement guide from SAG talks about logiciel minimum version and not hardware

You can look this file :

Do you bet

Correct me if I am wrong!

System requirements guide provides processor details. Each processor will have its operating frequency and RAM requirements.

It also specifies the OS bit 32/64 bit.

If you are still looking for other information, contact SAG global support they will assist you.

Thanks for your help and I would be crazy to bet with you

Information that misses in this documentation is operating frequency and RAM requirements for each compatible processor.

I had seeen that x86-64 processor was compatible on red hat 6 and that was my choice.

I have found other information in this documentation that match with I was expecting :

Thanks

Ya you are correct

For RAM and Processor speed you may contact SAG support. Let me know if you get some information from them.

What is your current system setup? I mean RAM and processor speed.

Last time I open a ticket for information on hardware requirement, SAG support was not able to make an answer and ask us to contact SAG consulting.

Currect system setup :
RHEL AS 5,4 64bits

One vm:
8 Go RAM and 1 processor Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU X5570 @ 2.93GHz 64 bits
1 IS, 1 Broker

Another vm :
12 Go RAM and 2 processor Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU X5570 @ 2.93GHz 64 bits
2 IS, 1 Broker

Another vm :
8 Go RAM, and 1 processor Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU X5570 @ 2.93GHz 64 bits
1 MWS

For each one : red hat 5.4 64b

Let me check on this and get back to you… Expect some delay in the response. Meanwhile if you find something interest please post back.
