  • 1.  ITMS 7.5 hardware suggestion

    Posted Jan 29, 2014 03:26 AM

    Hello,

    I am upgrading ITMS 7.1 SP2 to ITMS 7.5.

    I have gone through the hardware consideration for ITMS 7.5.

    I am going to use AMD processor instead of INTEL processor in virtual environment.

    Will i be having any issues related to performance??

    I am planning for off-box installation.

    As mentioned in the DOC5670 that VM are not recomended for production due to Latency can be caused from things like insufficient memory, slow disk subsystem configurations, use or excessive
    use of snapshots, insufficient CPUs, and many factors that can affect the ability of the VMs to get the resources when they are needed.

    If its your test you can go ahead but with Production it may be at risk, so you have to be careful before implementation.
