This release requires strong knowledge of Linux to install and configure.  While the process is currently geared for expert users we are working to improve usability in future releases.

What You Need

Cleversafe Dispersed Storage has been tested and validated on the following platform.

You are welcome to run Cleversafe Dispersed Storage on other platforms knowing it has not been tested yet.

Software

 

Hardware

Depending on the installation configuration used the hardware requirements will change. Here is what we recommend if you are using a local-remote-remote configuration.

Disk Space:
Make sure you have approximately 40 MB of temporary free disk space available.  After installation dsNet occupies approximately 20 MB of disk space, including dependencies. You must have as much disk space on the Slicestors to meet your storage requirements.

Processor and Memory:
The software has only been tested on 32-bit architectures. It is recommended that you use at least a Pentium 4 or higher, and 256MB of memory for the iSCSI Target and Slicestor machines.
