Installation Requirements

This section describes the disk space requirements, system memory requirements, software requirements, and supported platforms for this product.

Disk Space Requirements

Before installing this product, extract the contents of the installation archive to a temporary directory. The installer files consume up to 460 MB of disk space.

Temporary Disk Space Required by the Installer

The installer requires at least 250 MB of free space in the temporary directory. On Microsoft Windows, the temporary directory typically is:

%SystemDrive%:\Documents and Settings\user_name\Local Settings\Temp.

If your system does not have sufficient disk space in the default temporary area, you can run the installer with a different temporary directory by using the following option when starting the installer:

-is:tempdir /new_temp

where /new_temp has sufficient free disk space.

The installer calculates the disk space required in the product home location for the selected components. The calculation is done before the actual installation (copying of files to the system) begins. The installer will proceed only if sufficient free disk space is available in the product home location.

However, if disk space is consumed by another process while the installer is copying the files, and if the required disk space is thereby reduced, the installer may fail and will then give a failure message.

While performing installation, avoid running other processes that consume disk space in the product home location.

Disk Space After Installation

This product can consume 500MB of free space under b2bplugin _HOME.

System Memory Requirements

A minimum of 512 MBof physical memory is required.
