If you want to test or demonstrate the system on a VMware instance, review
the following guidelines before installing the system, to address system resource
limitations that derive from running under VMware.
- Use a lightweight database, such as MySQL, rather than DB2. If you use
the default DB2 database (or even your own installation of DB2), the
combination of DB2 and the system consumes too many system resources to work
under VMware.
- Set the memory used by VMware Workstation to run your virtual machine
to at least 1GB. In VMWare Workstation, select to
adjust this value.
