System requirement terms

Bitness	Compatibility of the product with the bit version support that is provided by an operating system. Different parts of a product might run on the same operating system but support different application bitness. For example, one part of the product might run only in 32-bit mode, whereas another might support 64-bit tolerate mode. 31: The product or part of the product runs as a 31-bit application in a 31-bit operating environment. 32: The product or part of the product runs as a 32-bit application in a 32-bit operating environment. 64-tolerate: The product or part of the product runs as a 32-bit application in a 64-bit operating environment. 64-exploit: The product or part of the product runs natively as a 64-bit application in a 64-bit operating environment.
Deployment unit and component	Deployment structure identifies pieces of a product that can be independently deployed onto one or more machines in a distributed infrastructure. The top level of the deployment structure consists of one or more deployment units. There are four possible deployment units that a product might support: Desktop, Server, Agent or client, Mobile. Deployment units may be further divided into deployable components Desktop deployment unit: Part of the deployment structure intended for use by a single user, typically installed on the user desktops. Examples of desktop deployment units include development tools, administrative tools, stand-alone business applications. Server deployment unit: Part of the deployment structure that can provide services to multiple clients, providing the server in a client-server architecture. Examples of server deployment units include application servers, management servers, database servers and server-based business applications. Agent or client deployment unit: Part of the deployment structure that allows remote connection between software. Examples of agent of client deployment units include agents in management system that are installed in the same tier as the managed resources, a remote application, or database clients that are installed with the software accessing the remote services. Mobile deployment unit: Part of the deployment structure intended for use by a single user, typically installed on a mobile device. An example of a mobile deployment unit is a mobile application.
Product minimum	The minimum maintenance level that is required for the product to run on the operating system, on an hypervisor, or work with a prerequisite product or supported software.
End of support	The maintenance level of the product when end of support has been announced for the operating system, an hypervisor, or work with a prerequisite product or supported software.
Operating system minimum	The minimum operating system maintenance level that is required to run on the product.

Bitness

Compatibility of the product with the bit version support that is provided by an operating system. Different parts of a product might run on the same operating system but support different application bitness. For example, one part of the product might run only in 32-bit mode, whereas another might support 64-bit tolerate mode.

31: The product or part of the product runs as a 31-bit application in a 31-bit operating environment.

32: The product or part of the product runs as a 32-bit application in a 32-bit operating environment.

64-tolerate: The product or part of the product runs as a 32-bit application in a 64-bit operating environment.

64-exploit: The product or part of the product runs natively as a 64-bit application in a 64-bit operating environment.

Deployment unit and component

Deployment structure identifies pieces of a product that can be independently deployed onto one or more machines in a distributed infrastructure.

The top level of the deployment structure consists of one or more deployment units. There are four possible deployment units that a product might support: Desktop, Server, Agent or client, Mobile.
Deployment units may be further divided into deployable components

Desktop deployment unit: Part of the deployment structure intended for use by a single user, typically installed on the user desktops. Examples of desktop deployment units include development tools, administrative tools, stand-alone business applications.

Server deployment unit: Part of the deployment structure that can provide services to multiple clients, providing the server in a client-server architecture. Examples of server deployment units include application servers, management servers, database servers and server-based business applications.

Agent or client deployment unit: Part of the deployment structure that allows remote connection between software. Examples of agent of client deployment units include agents in management system that are installed in the same tier as the managed resources, a remote application, or database clients that are installed with the software accessing the remote services.

Mobile deployment unit: Part of the deployment structure intended for use by a single user, typically installed on a mobile device. An example of a mobile deployment unit is a mobile application.

Product minimum

The minimum maintenance level that is required for the product to run on the operating system, on an hypervisor, or work with a prerequisite product or supported software.

End of support

The maintenance level of the product when end of support has been announced for the operating system, an hypervisor, or work with a prerequisite product or supported software.

Operating system minimum

The minimum operating system maintenance level that is required to run on the product.
