Installing and using D3 requires a working knowledge of the underlying UNIX operating system on which D3 will be installed. The minimum hardware and software recommendations and requirements for installing D3 are listed below. Use the information located in the System Administration Guide to assist in determining the best configuration.
Use a Rocket certified version of Linux. Use Red Hat Enterprise Linux or CentOS (64 bit) - Intel only.See the Rocket Web Site for a list of currently supported distributions:

If the Linux system has an active Internet connection, then the D3_setup procedure will install these dependencies automatically.
These hardware requirements are the minimum equipment required to run D3 Linux.
Minimum required memory is 16 MB and maximum recognized memory is 200 GB. For more information see the Using D3 Memory section of the D3 System Administration Guide.
| Hard Disk Space Categories | Linux Minimum Recommendations | Your Actual |
|---|---|---|
| File space for the D3 partition | 400 MB. | |
| File space for Linux | 60 MB or more (depending on system configuration). These Linux package options are further documented in the Red Hat Linux installation guide which is available from: http://www.redhat.com/ |
|
| Application data space | ||
| Considerations for increasing disk space requirements for the D3 file system: | ||
| Customer data | ||
| D3 application files | ||
| Growth space | ||
| D3 error log (optional) | 10 MB of additional space. | |
| Swap space calculation: | ||
| Minimum | 32 MB | |
| Maximum | Calculate two times the amount of memory. | |
| Systems with up to and including 128 MB of physical, installed memory. | Estimate the swap size as two times the physical installed memory. | |
| Systems with 129 MB or more of physical installed memory. | Estimate the swap size as equal to the physical installed memory. | |
The Openssl package is required if you intend to use the data encryption, SSL or Host Authentication features. If OpenSSL is not already installed, you must re-run the D3_setup command after installing the libraries to create an explicit link to the libraries. See Loading the D3 package for more information.
A version of the C Development environment must be installed for D3 Linux to install. The C Development environment can be found on the Red Hat distribution CD.
