CONTENTdm System Requirements
This page details system requirements. To learn more about setting up and using CONTENTdm, see the Quick Technical Facts brochure.
Server
The CONTENTdm Server requires the following:
- Microsoft® Windows ServerTM 2000 or 2003, Linux, or SunTM SolarisTM 9 or higher
- Dedicated Web server (IIS with Windows®, Apache with UNIX)
- 32-bit x86 processor (Intel® Pentium® 4 class compatible processor or higher)
- Minimum 512MB RAM. Recommended 1GB+ RAM
- Adequate disk space to hold your collection. (The most common file types within collections are JPEGs with an average file size of 100KB. Five hundred JPEG images would require about 50MB of disk space. Larger image files or audio and video files require additional disk space. Assuming an average file size of 100KB, a one gigabyte system can store up to 10,000 display-quality JPEG-compressed images. Each additional gigabyte adds the capacity to store an additional 10,000 images.)
Note: CONTENTdm can, and usually does, coexist on systems with other Web sites and applications. The CONTENTdm Server should have its own Web server (IIS or Apache) instance.
Acquisition Station
The CONTENTdm Acquisition Station requires the following:
- Microsoft Windows 2000 Professional or Windows XP
- 32-bit x86 processor (Intel® Pentium® 4 class compatible processor or higher)
- Microsoft Internet Explorer 6.0 or later
- Minimum 256MB RAM
- 100MB of available hard-disk space for installation
- Minimum display resolution of 1024 x 768
- 128Kbps or faster connection
- Adobe® Reader® version 7.0 or later
