For example, if you plan to use the parallel-with-replication method. you may need additional disk space to install a secondary system, a Replication Server for the high availability environment, a disk farm for fallback strategies, and additional memory.
The release bulletin for your platform contains information about any hardware requirements.
See the physical memory requirements noted in the installation guide for your platform. See Chapter 5, “Making Database Administration Changes,” for more information on memory requirements.
See the Adaptive Server System Administration Guide for information on memory and backups.
