The Linux-based PC server must meet the following requirements:
-
The server must be up-to-date with all operating system patches.
-
Data files must reside on an EXT3, EXT4 or XFS file system.
-
The VM space should be unlimited. Verify the current value in the
console:
ulimit -v
-
The numbers of threads should be at least 2048. For example,
nproc > 4096. See
Increase the nproc limit.
-
The hard limit for maximum number of file descriptors per process
should be at least 32768. If you receive the "Too many open files in system"
error, modify the ulimit as described in the
Increase the nofile limit.
-
To index documents correctly in Linux installations that do not
use UTF8, such as C and ISO-8859-1, set the
LANG environment variable to UTF-8 encoding.
For example:
-
for American English:
$ export LANG=en_US.UTF-8
-
for French:
$ export LANG=fr_FR.UTF-8
-
for Japanese:
$ export LANG=ja_JP.UTF-8
Note:
We recommend
en_US.UTF-8 encoding for reporting purposes.
