Server Sizing for OCS

Does anyone / Oracle have a Server Sizing
document for OCS and/or individual modules
[Files, Email, Calendar etc].
Looking at sizing for 100 users, 1000 users,
3000 users.
Thanks
Hemant

Contact you local Oracle Collaboration Suite Product Manager,
they have a really cool online (Internal only) sizing tool for each component of OCS. This question has been asked many times
by various members

Server Sizing For Oracle Database

Hi All,
I need a server sizing for the below mentioned architecture:
This application is basically for logistics company which we are planing to host it centrally with two server's one server for application and one for oracle database along with DR site (Other Location). There are four locations and each location will have 20 users who are going to access this application (20 x 4= 80 Users). We are using MPLS network of 35 mbps bandwidth.
1. Application server: Windows server 2008 R2
2. Database Server: Windows server 2008 R2, Oracle 11g r2
I need a server sizing documents.
Thanks........

Thanks........I'd seriously reconsider hosting Oracle db on Windows. Obviously there are many, many shops that do. And obviously it is often a case of the fact that they do not have (and choose to not acquire) expertise in Linux. But I've been in IT for 30+ years and have worked on IBM S-370 and its variants and descendents, Windows since v3, DEC VMS, IBM OS/2, Solaris, AIX, HPUX, and Oracle Linux. The first Oracle database I ever created was on Windows 3.11 and at that point I had never seen *nix. Now I am in a position to state that Windows is the worst excuse of an operating system of any I have ever used. I am constantly amazed/amused by how often (at least once a month on schedule, plus unplanned times) that our Windows SA has to send out a notice that he is re-booting his servers. I can't remember the last time we had to reboot a Linux server ( I have 4 of them)
Yes, I'm biased away from Windows, but that bias comes from experience. Hardly a day goes by that I don't see something that causes me to say to whoever is in earshot "have I told you how much I hate Windows?"I was going to refrain from commenting on that, as I assumed they're a Windows shop and aren't open to any other OS (but my assumption could be incorrect).
I haven't been working in IT for as long as many of the folks around here, only about 10 years. I'm a former system admin that maintained both Linux and Windows servers, but my focus was on Windows. In the right hands, Windows can be rock solid. If a system admin has to reboot Windows servers often, he is most likely doing something wrong, or is rebooting for security updates. It's never as simple as "Windows Sucks," or "Linux Sucks;" it all depends on who's running the system (again, in my opinion).
I have seen some windows servers run uninterrupted for so long no one could remember the admin password. But more often memory leaks and the "weekly update" (replacing last weeks bugs with this weeks) is the culprit.
Yes, it really is sad how often you have to reboot for updates if you want to keep your system current. Mind you, it's better to have the fixes then to not have them (maybe). I rebooted my servers about once every month at my old place... which is not that bad.
With that said, in my experience, Oracle on Windows is a major pain. It takes me much longer to do anything. Once you get proficient with a CLI like the bash shell, the Windows GUI can't compare.Agreed. One of my many complaints about Windows is the poor excuse of a shell processor. I'm pretty proficient in command line scripting, but still cringe when I have to do it. Practically every line of code I write for a command script is accompanied by the remark "this is so lame compared to what I could do with a shell script". Same for vi vs. notepad. But my real problem is the memory leaks and the registry. I'm fairly comfortable hacking certain areas of the registry, but the need to and the arcane linkages between different areas of the registry and how they influence 'process environment' remains a mystery to all but a tiny minority of admins. Compare to *nix where everything is well documented and "knowable".
One (of many) anecdotal experiences, this with my personal Win7 laptop. One time it crashed and refused to reboot. A bit of a google search turned up some arcane keystroke sequence to put it into some sort of recovery mode on bootup .. similar to getting into the bios, but the keystroke sequence was much more complex .. it may have involved standing on one foot while entering the sequence. Anyway, it entered a recovery process I've never seen before or since and repaired everything. My first thought was "hey, that was pretty cool." Then my second thought was 'but only Windows would need such a facility.
Bottom line? To paraphrase a famous Tom Hanks character, "My momma always said Windows was like a box of chocolates. You never know just what you'll get."Haha... I like that one. Yes, the registry is definitely horrible. It's amazing to me that a single point of failure was Microsoft's answer to INI files.
I think Windows and nix have their places. Server work definitely seems more productive to me in a nix environment, but I think I'd jump off a cliff if I had to use it as my desktop environment day-in-day-out. The other problem is application lock-down; I can't blame the OS for that, but it's a reality... and using virtualization to run those applications seems to defeat the point to me.

Proper server sizing for SPARC/Solaris to Intel/R migrations

Is there any collateral available concerning proper server sizing for customers migrating from SPARC/Solaris to Intel/RHEL? I was just asked by our account team that is working with a very large custormer in the pharma space.
My initial knee jerk was to refer them to the OEM but thought I'd look around in these forums first.
My searches have not returned any good results yet.

Hi Mike
the public SAP SD-Benchmark homepage ([http://www.sap.com/benchmark/|http://www.sap.com/benchmark/] -> SD two-tier results) gives interesting but very indirect sizing hints. There are several SAP SD-Benchmarks on SPARC/Solaris. I picked some of them:
[2008075|http://download.sap.com/download.epd?context=B1FEF26EB0CC3466320983FEDBEB2A47615DC8F24866B0B6870E95AA3589B515566F7A57D98961BB]: 24650 SD-User w SAP ERP 6.0 (2005 Non-Unicode) on SPARC Enterprise Server M9000 (32CPUs)
[2008062|http://download.sap.com/download.epd?context=40E2D9D5E00EEF7C974D9FC4D21DA80E794CB437BC196262799B27A2BB01B9D6]: 825 SD-User w SAP ERP 6.0 (2005 Non-Unicode) on SPARC Enterprise Server M3000 (1CPU)
[2008058|http://download.sap.com/download.epd?context=40E2D9D5E00EEF7CB82813BD3F95797BAEB80527B36EC026E03386D659E4DE48]: 7520 SD-User w SAP ERP 6.0 (2005 Non-Unicode) on SPARC Enterprise T5440 (4CPUs)
You'll probably have the hardware setup of your customer together with the system utilization. Check it with the Solaris/SPARC benchmarks on the public page and check for Intel Benchmarks as well. Make sure, that the SAP release is the same (with 2009 a new SAP release is mandatory for benchmarks -> numbers are not comparable to 100%).
Thanks,
Hannes

SAP Content Server sizing for DMS

Hi
Can anyone advise on the most appropriate way to 'size' for a new Content Server. Documents have been stored in the SAP DB till now, but the use is increasing, so now a new Content Server is to be added and all existing documents migrated into it. I have seen references in the past to SAP methodology for sizing the content server, but now cant find any.
Thanks

Dear John
Please find these links on how to do SAP content Server sizing.

Server Sizing for SQL Server 2005

Hi Experts,
We are having a SQL Server 2005 Enterprise Edition, we are planning to do a sizing of the server.
Do we have any standard tool or criteria which can be used to come up with an assessment of the hardware enhancement which can be proposed for the server which host SQL server 2005.
Also is there any standard recommendation when setting up a production environment which would host SQL Server

SQL Server Sizing for Lync Server 2013

Hi,
We are planning to install Lync Server 2013 with 800 users, but I can find any information about the SQL Server instance sizing.
Can anyone give me an estimation or prior experience with similar installations? I need to know Disk size, memory an CPU number.
Thanks in advance.

There are a few variables to consider. Are you turning on monitoring, archiving, and is enterprise voice enabled? Is persistent chat enabled? Is it virtualized? Is this Lync enterprise edition or standard with a portion of the
databases hosted on full SQL? Are you required to retain any information or logs for a specific amount of time? Are you keeping SQL backups local with maintenance plans and for how long?
I would suggest not going below 16GB for a SQL Server, but you may not need much more. If it's virtual I'd throw 4 cores at it at least and disk space will vary based upon what you're doing and how long you want to keep things. Thick provision
those drives and make sure the logs and databases are on separate partitions.

Server Sizing for Flash Interactive Media 3

Hello,
I can't get anyone in sales to answer this question. Specs
say any Windows 2003 32bit OS and recommends 4MB RAM. But I would
like to put a powerful server dedicated to this function but don't
know if this software is capable of Hyperthreading. I can have one
or come CPU's all with multiple cores. Likewise I could install
Windows 2003 Enterprise Server and put in a lot more memory.
Obviously I don't want to throw money into processors,
Enterprise OS or more RAM if this software won't take advantage of
it.
Any help?
Thank you?
Text

Okay here is an answer to my own post based upon what I've
learned.
A single License of FIM3 will handle up to (2) physical
processors limited to Dual Core. You cannot use (2) CPU's with Quad
Core processors, this would require an additional server license on
the same physical server.
FIM3 was also designed to minimize memory use. 4GB is
recommended but 8GB RAM is preferred. The later of course will
require an upgrade to Windows 2003 OS Enterprise Version.
My configuration below on a single server will handle
streaming up to 1000 concurrent users with no problem.
Dell 2950 2U rack mount
(2) Dual Core Intel Xeon 3.0's with 4MB cache each. 1333Mhz
Buss.
Windows 2003 Server, Enterprise Version, 32bit.
8GB DDR2 ECC Fully buffered RAM, 677Mhz.
(4) 300GB 15k SAS hard drives in RAID 10 configuration (600GB
effective use).
Hope this helps all who search for server specs.

Server sizing for multi-client Acrobat Reader access of .pdf files

I am trying to specify the appropriate file server (need processor rating & memory size)running Windows 2008 for 64 high tempo users on a LAN accessing large .pdf files (~20 mb each) using Acrobat Reader 8 or 9. Total data package size is about 30 Gig. LAN is Gigabit speed on CAT 6 cable.
Suggestions?

Time is 10:35 PM, Jan 30, 2014 after a day of nerve racking attempts to get Adobe Reader 11.0.6 to open a pdf file I have finally succeeded in doing so. The following apkhan response to my original inquiry, even though it didn't directly help me much, but it gave me an insight that what I was inquiring about in the description of my problem had to do something with the EULA I was inquiring about and couldn't find were and how that is to be done. For whatever reason I had installed Reader 11.0.6 three times throughout the day and still couldn't read a pdf file or see the EULA to agree to it or not. During another installation of Reader 11.0.6 at 9:00PM, 1-30-14, a window appeared and required my administrative password to install the software and rightly so. This is probably the reason why Reader was so dysfunctional, because for whatever reason, this approval window didn't appear during the initial installations but I was allowed to install Reader anyways and the proof of it was it did end up in my Applications Folder-confusing and strange at best. Without my administrative password the software should not have been allowed to be installed and this has always been the case. I will have to dwell upon that one for a while. Anyway, for everyones information, the Mac version of 11.0.6 Adobe Reader doesn't ask for you to click a button to Agree or Not Agree to an EULA verbiage statement. Just above the INSTALL BUTTON (Yellow Background) on the installation window the instructions notes, when you hit the install button you aromatically agree to the EULA and the way you go. I tried getting into the EULA via the Adobe the desktop Icon but to no avail. Hopes this helps someone else. Thanks to those at the Adobe Community that tried to help me with this mind boggling episode.

DMS server sizing calculation

HI Gurus,
My client has given that Finance department is generating documents around 20 GB per month (includes all types of format) now i have to create the Server sizing for this 20 GB kindly help on how to proceed. Is there is any standard calculation for this.
Regards
Kannan

Recommended approach for managing Finance documents is SAP Archivelink solution(refer previous posts in forum).
Content server sizing is a separate exercise that you need to carry out in conjunction with your Basis team and the customer. Capture details along parameters like Office/Plant from where docs would be accessed, the available network bandwidth,number of users,number of transactions per day,maximum size of a single file,number of documents generated/day that would be uploaded and the growth plan for the next 3 years.Once done,the Basis team will provide you with details like CPU,RAM,OS,bandwidth and hard disk space that would be needed from which the cost can be calculated.

MCS Server Sizing

Just looking for a general idea on MCS server sizing for CCM and IPCC Express. I understand actual sizing needs to be done by a partner with the Cisco tool.
My understanding from SRND is that all servers within a CCM cluster should be the same size (7835's, 7845's, etc.).
Does that mean my IPCC Express servers should be the same size/model as well?
Conceptually, would it be ok to use 7845's for my CCM cluster and 7835's for IPCC Express? (provided the sizing is independently appropriate).
Thanks.

The choice of servers for IPCC express is completely independent from Callmanager hardware. Regarding the servers in the CCM cluster being the same, its generally a good practice to keep them all the same. (Though, you definitely can have a 7835 for your Subscriber and 7845 for Publisher, no big deal).
Now for IPCC Express, the choice of server requirement is based on, many factors.
a. Just like Callmanager assigns weights to devices, IPCC Express assigns weights or points to various features such as (number of Recording sessions, number of Historical reporting sessions, ASR/TTS, total number of agents, supervisors, IVR ports etc. If your server doesnt meet the total number of points required for all the features you need, then you need to use the next higher model. So a 7825 has 900 points, 7835 has 1266 points, 7845 has i think about 3400 points. You have to use a spreadsheet available for download (called CRS configuration tool) which tells you the right hardware you need for the IPCC features that is required for your call center.
7845s are same as 7835s except that 7845s have dual processors, 2 extra hard disks, RAID 5 etc. You may need a 7845 if you need upto two HR sessions during business hours.

SAPConsole server sizing

Hello everyone.
I am currently involved in a project that will use SAPConsole. We have chosen the Georgia Softworks telnet server and plan approx. 135 concurrent sessions on the SAPConsole server. Georgia Softworks provide rules to correctly size the amount of RAM to install on the server but nothing about the CPU (type, number).
Is there a rule to correctly size a SAPConsole for 135 concurrent sessions ?
If anyone has some examples of hardware working on a productive server for more than 100 concurrent sessions, it would help.
Thanks to all for your help.
Best regards.

Thanks for your help.
I have finally found a SAP document explaining how to size a SAPConsole server:
https://websmp206.sap-ag.de/~form/sapnet?_SHORTKEY=01100035870000341390&

Recommended sizing for ZLM server/infrastructure

Hi,
I hope this is the right category to place this question.
I was wondering if any of you does have some recommendation according to the correct sizing for a ZLM infrastructure meaning how large would be a typical management zone when using the postgres db shipped with ZLM?
What type of hardware are you running your ZLM server software on?
Field reports welcome :)
Best regards
--Daniel

Daniel ,
we have just one management zone with a primary and a secondary at the backup data center. We managed sles 9/10 (soon 11) and RH4 and a bunch of third party software.
The package repository is currently at 35 GB and the database is at 3 GB. The object store is just about 100mb so no need to think about that. that will not grow very much when adding new systems or patches.
What I would take care of is that the database and package repository are located on a logical volume that you can resize online in case you need to expand it. We use reiser for that. The datbase as you can see is also not so big. But when you add new distributions (SLES 11 or so) you might need another3 GB for 32 and 3GB for the 64bit version. Then when then number of updates increase you need even more. Then later on for SP1 again about 5-6GB for both architectures ....
