    System Requirements

    for Backup Software



    OBS  / RPS  / RDR  / PRD

    OBM  / ACB  

     CPU:

     Dual Core architecture or above

     N/A [10]

     

     [10]Multiple thread support is available for both backup and restore operation, resulting in increased processing power requirement and memory usage. It is recommended a client machine should be installed with multiple core processors with sufficient memory.

     Additional Note:
     Max number of threads available for backup and restore operation is determined by the number of logical CPU on the client machine, calculated with the following formula:
     Max # of Threads = # of CPU x 2 (up to a maximum of 4 threads for backup and 8 threads for restore)

     

     Memory: [11]

     Minimum: 1 GB
     Recommended: 2 GB or more

     Minimum: 512 MB
     Recommended: 1 GB or more

     

     [11] 2GB RAM or more is recommended for better performance

    .
