Resource requirements

Review the UNIX resource requirements.

A file system on your installation computer must have the required amount of free space for the Rational® Synergy installation directory. This requirement is outlined in the installation documentation.

Typically, the upgrade procedures require that the previous installation remains in place while the new installation and upgrade are performed. Sufficient disk space for both installations is required.

Configure your servers with the disk space, memory, swap space, shared memory, and semaphores. This requirement is outlined in the installation documentation.

On some UNIX systems, NFS caches are not updated even as a result of local activity. When the file system portion of the Rational Synergy database is NFS-mounted from another system, you might encounter problems if you run an interface and engine on these UNIX systems. To solve this problem, mount the database file system either with NFS caching turned off (-noac), or with -actimeo=0.
