Minimum System Requirements to run Beyond



Beyond ARM Requirements (On-Premise)

Server, backups, workstations and network support responsibility

DAKCS Software Systems (DAKCS) support resources will provide application and support assistance on only DAKCS provided software and services. It is the Customers responsibility to have in place appropriate in-house or outsourced resources to provide hardware, printer, network, and workstation support. DAKCS support resources will work closely with these resources to identify any hardware, workstation, or network issues that may inhibit the proper operation of the Beyond ARM application, but in no event is DAKCS responsible for directly supporting this infrastructure. Customer shall be responsible for data backup and to periodically test the backup system to ensure that it is functioning properly. In no event shall DAKCS Software Systems be responsible for failed backup or loss of data due to lack of proper backups.

Beyond ARM workstation requirements

  1. Windows 10 Professional (32 or 64-bit)
  2. Latest .NET Framework
  3. 4 Gb Min RAM, 8 Gb recommended
  4. 160+ Gb HDD
  5. Minimum graphics resolution 1024 x 768, 1280 x 1024 recommended
  6. 100 Mbit network connection
  7. Windows Security Essentials for anti-virus installed
  8. Windows Updates turned on

Beyond ARM server and peripheral requirements

  1. Operating System:
    1. RHEL 8 is end-of-life May 31, 2029
    2. Rocky Linux 8 end-of-life May 2029
  2. CPU: Intel Xeon CPUs – 2.5GHz + recommended (AMD equivalent okay)
    1. 1 – 36 Users – 2 Cores, 8Gb RAM
    2. 37 – 72 Users – 4 Cores, 16Gb RAM
    3. 72 + Users – 8 Cores, 8Gb RAM + 4Gb for every 20 Users
  3. Storage: Disk Array – RAID 1, 5, 6, or 10, SCSI or SATA-II 10k RPM, 160+ GB
  4. Uninterruptable Power Supply (UPS)

Backup Device Recommendations

  1. Network Attached Storage (NAS) with Gigabit LAN connection OR
  2. USB 3.0 Backup Drive attached directly to the server
  3. Appropriate controls to restore the underlying infrastructure in the event of a hardware failure such as backup recovery disks and an industry-standard backup solution

Specific data to backup

While full system backups will be the most complete, critical application data exists in the following server directories:
  1. /u
  2. /usr/cmail
  3. /etc/setdakcsenv
  4. /etc/imsrc

Networking/LAN

  1. 100 Base-T minimum, 1000 Base-T (Gigabit) recommended
  2. QoS recommended
