Server Hardware Requirements
The following specifications are the minimum recommended for a server that will support up to the indicated number of users for a typical Fitrix ERP implementation. A useful system life of 3-5 years is anticipated. Hardware resources of less than those recommended below may provide more than adequate performance for some implementations; however, growth should be considered. Another factor not comprehensively addressed by these recommendations is upgrade capability. Remember that hardware technology and prices change rapidly and these recommendations are based on readily-available products on the date this document was last updated.
Notes
- The standard Fitrix ERP license is limited to a maximum of 2 dual core processors or 1 quad core processor on the server (see full details on the “complete Linux server requirements” link below). Additional licensing fees apply beyond these limits.
- RAM is inexpensive and can improve system performance by adding more than the recommended value.
- No need for high-end graphics card for Linux console.
- Tape backup is included for pricing purposes. Customer may substitute other backup devices such as rotating external hard drives, USB flash memory drives, DVD’s or other storage media.
