System requirements: Software requirements for IBM Content Manager Enterprise Edition Version 8.4.3 Fix Pack 3

Product Documentation


Abstract

This page describes the minimum system requirements for the software to operate IBM Content Manager Enterprise Edition V8.4.3 Fix Pack 3.

Important:
Because other products frequently ship fixes, updates, and new releases, testing every configuration is not possible. In general, you can install and run with updates to supported products if those updates are forward compatible.

For detailed examples about what is supported, see the IBM Content Manager prerequisite support policy at http://www.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=swg27018047.

For Content Manager Enterprise Edition hardware requirements and Content Manager for z/OS software requirements, see the Related information links at the end of this document.

MQ_JAVA_LIB_PATH is the environment variable for the MQ Java library path. On AIX or Solaris, use either the 32-bit libraries or the 64-bit libraries. Use the 64-bit libraries only if you are running your application in a 64-bit Java virtual machine (JVM) on a 64-bit platform. Otherwise, use the 32-bit libraries.

Long-term storage (resource manager)

The following table specifies the required software for implementing the optional long-term storage capability on the Resource Manager. Resource Manager is supported on both 32-bit and 64-bit Tivoli Storage Manager (TSM) API Client.
If you are on a 64-bit operating system running 32-bit WebSphere JVM, then you need to install the 32-bit TSM API.
Or if you are on a 64-bit operating system running 64-bit WebSphere JVM, then you need to install the 64-bit TSM API.
Note that if on 32-bit then WebSphere must be 32-bit and so must the TSM API.
For the 64-bit Windows 2008 operating system, you can install the 64-bit client but must select Custom install and add the 32-bit application programming interfaces.
