Requirement

CPU

A Pentium processor.

Disk storage

A minimum of 450MB of available hard disk space:

  • 400MB for the Replication Server software, supporting files, and log files.

  • An additional 20MB for each Replication Server disk partition. The disk partition may be on a different disk than your Sybase software.

One of the following:

  • Disk space for your Adaptive Server Enterprise database, which serves as your Replication Server System Database (RSSD) if you are not using the Embedded RSSD (ERSSD). See your Adaptive Server Enterprise documentation for system requirements.

  • 80MB for your Adaptive Server Anywhere database, which serves as your ERSSD. The database directory, transaction log directory, and backup directory that make up the 80MB should each reside on different disks.

More disk space may be required, depending on your replication system application.
