Check the memory and disk space that is required for your installation.
Requirements for memory and disk space depend on the installation operating system, and on the WebSphere® Message Broker components that you are installing.
Check that your computer has at least the space shown in the table below, which provides guidance for both permanent product requirements and temporary space. If you install just one or two of the runtime components, the storage required is reduced by only a small amount. Check that these requirements have not been updated in the latest product readme file readme.html.
If the installation directory and the temporary space are on the same partition or drive, add together the two figures to check that you have enough space available. If you do not, increase the available storage or change either the location of the temporary space or the installation directory. The temporary files are deleted when installation has completed.
If you are installing the Message Broker Toolkit, you can specify a different temporary space directory when you invoke the installation wizard. Detailed instructions are given in the Installation Guide.
The installation wizard displays requirements for permanent space, but not for temporary space. If the figure that the installation wizard displays is greater than the figure shown in the table below, check that your computer has sufficient space before you continue with the installation.
