RAM

A minimum of 512MB RAM.

Disk storage

A minimum of 870MB of available hard disk space:

  • 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 (ERRSD). See your Adaptive Server Enterprise documentation for system requirements.

    • 80MB for your SQL 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.
