Technical details on Rome
2007-03-23The following comes from Janet Felts <janet.felts@sirsidynix.com>:
SirsiDynix recommends Oracle for the Rome server. The platforms supported include Solaris, HP-UX, IBM AIX, Windows, and Intel or Opteron-based Red Hat or SuSE LINUX, and we support both 32 bit and 64 bit.
The specific client workstation recommendations are as follows:
- Windows 2000, XP or Mac OS X (10.4 or higher on Intel or PowerPC)
- CPU Speed: Minimum: 700 MHz, Suggested: 1 Ghz
- Memory: Minimum: 512 MB, Suggested: 1 GB
- Screen Resolution: 1024 x 768 or better
So it looks like the only thing our customers might have to upgrade is some monitors; there are certainly some employees and volunteers who would be more comfortable on a 19″ screen if they’re going to be running at 1024×768.
We’re using Sybase, so that would have to change, but it sounds like that’s the biggest change we’d need to make. That’s a relief.
