Small environment guidelines

For environments containing up to 5K targets, you can use server installation types 1, proof of concept only, or 2 in Server environment guidelines.

Also, consider the following extra requirements.
  • Processors: 1 Quad core or 2 dual core processors, 2.40 GHz, with supported OS.
  • Memory: 4 GB RAM.
  • Storage. For more information, see Server requirements.
  • Heartbeat configuration
    Table 1. Heartbeat configuration properties: suggested values for a small environment
    Property in trc.properties Value
    heartbeat.timeout 60
    Note: If there are performance issues, set the value to 1440, which is 24 hours. For example, when there is heavy usage of reports, especially with Derby.
    Default is 60, which is 1 hour.
    heartbeat.retry 10
    heartbeat.delay 20
    heartbeat.on.wake 0
    heartbeat.on.user.change 1
    heartbeat.on.change 0
    heartbeat.on.stop 0
Note: Installation type 1 is suitable for demonstrations or pilot projects. Installation type 2 can give better performance, which might be preferred for production systems in these environments.
