C H A P T E R 1 Introduction and System Requirements
25
Memory
You need enough memory to run the Windows or Linux host operating system, plus
memory required for each guest operating system and applications on the host and
each guest; see your guest operating system and application documentation for their
memory requirements.
• Minimum: 512MB
• Maximum: 64GB for Windows hosts and Linux hosts that support large memory
or are PAE-enabled, 4GB for non-PAE-enabled Windows hosts or 2GB for Linux
hosts with kernels in the 2.2.x series
Display
• 16-bit display adapter or higher
Host Hard Disk
• 130MB free disk space on Windows hosts required for server, VMware
Management Interface, VmPerl API, VmCOM API and VMware Virtual Machine
Console installation
• 20MB free disk space on Linux hosts required for server, VMware Management
Interface, VmPerl API and VMware Virtual Machine Console installation
• Disk space in
/tmp
on Linux hosts should be equivalent to 1.5 times the amount
of memory on the host. For information on the
/tmp
directory, read VMware
knowledge base article 844 at
www.vmware.com/support/kb/enduser/std_adp.php?p_faqid=844 .
• At least 1GB free disk space recommended for each guest operating system and
the application software used with it; using a default setup, the actual disk space
needs are approximately the same as those for installing and running the guest
operating system and applications on a physical computer
• IDE or SCSI hard drives, CD-ROM and DVD-ROM drives supported
• Guest operating systems can reside in virtual disk files or on physical (raw) disk
partitions
Local Area Networking
• Any Ethernet controller that the host operating system supports
• Non-Ethernet networks are supported using built-in network address translation
(NAT) or using a combination of host-only networking plus routing software on
the host operating system
• A static IP address for your host machine (recommended)
