This document describes the minimum configuration requirements when installing the Software package application and data servers on a Linux - Oracle 12c server.
| Category | Configuration requirements |
|---|
| Operating system | - Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7. Recommended version: 7.5 or later.
- Oracle Enterprise Linux 7. Recommended version: 7.5 or later.
- CentOS 7 can be used for non-production systems but this is not officialy supported by Sage.
|
| Computer | - Industry-standard server or virtual machine.
- Processors:
- Recommended: Intel® Xeon® E5 v3 or later, E7 v3 or later
- AMD OPTERON™ or EPYC™
- Avoid low energy processors, best performance with a clock speed above 2.4 GHz
Recommended to manage up to 50 users simultaneously in a single-tier architecture.1 core per group of 40 sessions. |
| RAM | - 2 GB minimum for Windows Operating System, 2 GB minimum (more is better) per Oracle database instance.
|
| Miscellaneous | Make sure:- the X-windows components are correctly installed from the Unix server's Graphical console: xclock (a clock should be displayed on the console).
Caution: Make sure the Graphical console works properly before installing Oracle 12c on the UNIX server. - you install "ksh", as it is required for the Apps server installation.
- you set SELINUX to "Permissive" on the Apps server.
|
| Disk space | - For Oracle 12c software: 5 GB for 12.1.0.2 SE2. It can be more for 12.2.0.1 and/or Enterprise Edition.
- For Sage X3 (reference folder and software): 4 GB.
- For the demo folder: 8 GB.
- For the production folder: depends on the data managed. A sizing tool is available to calculate size requirements.
|
| Database software | - Oracle 12c, versions 12.1.0.2 and 12.2.0.1, editions SE2 (Standard Edition 2) or EE (Enterprise Edition).
- It is necessary to set up a listener.
- If a sqlnet.ora file has been defined for the listener, make sure that:
- the SQLNET.AUTHENTICATION_SERVICES parameter value is set to "BEQ". The "NTS" value is not supported.
- The SQLNET.ALLOWED_LOGON_VERSION parameter must be set to "8". Create this parameter if it does not exist already.
|
| Mail server | - The workflow engine used in "Classic" mode requires a SMTP server or gateway accessible from the server.
|
| Publication server | An Apache server 2.4 must be installed on the application server:- The standard "httpd" Linux package that is based on Apache 2.4 source works perfectly with Sage X3 V12.Use
yum install httpd to install - Modules "mod_proxy", "mod_proxy_http", "mod_proxy_connect" and "mod_proxy_ftp" must be available on Apache.
|
| Others | - A SAFE X3 ADXADMIN administration runtime must be installed on the server.
- A JDK or Java Runtime Environment (version 8) must be installed.
OpenJDK is reported to work well on Linux with Sage X3 but may interfere on single-tier environments with embedded Java.
