Table 2.1. Stand-Alone Database and Embedded Database Satellite
Hardware Requirements
The following hardware configuration is required for the Stand-Alone Database:
• Two processors
• 2 GB of memory
See Section 3, “Database Requirements” for instructions on estimating the tablespace of the
database and setting its environment variables.
Keep in mind, the frequency with which client systems connect to the Satellite is directly related
to load on the Apache Web server and the database. Reducing the default interval of four hours
(or 240 minutes) as set in the
/etc/sysconfig/rhn/rhnsd
configuration file of the client
systems significantly increases the load on those components.
Additional hardware requirements include:
• The Stand-Alone Database must not run on the same server as the RHN Satellite Server.
• The package repository may be any large storage device easily and securely accessed by the
other components. The space requirements depend on the number of packages that will be
stored. Default Red Hat channels contain approximately 3 GB of packages each, and that
size grows with each synchronization; customers must also account for the space
requirements of packages in their own private channels. Whatever storage solution the
customer chooses, its mount point may be defined during the installation process.
If you are installing RHN Satellite Server with Embedded Database, skip to Section 4,
“Additional Requirements” .
3. Database Requirements
This section applies only to RHN Satellite Server with Stand-Alone Database as the
requirements for the Embedded Database are included in the Satellite machine's hardware
requirements. Red Hat supports RHN Satellite Server 5.0.0 installations in conjunction with
Oracle 9i R2. The Stand-Alone Database must not run on the same server as the RHN Satellite
Server.
A single 6 GB tablespace is recommended as more than sufficient for most installations. It is
possible for many customers to function with a smaller tablespace. An experienced Oracle
database administrator (DBA) will be necessary to assess sizing issues. The following formula
should be used to determine the required size of your database:
