Hardware requirements

The hardware requirements for QoreStor installation differ depending on whether you are installing QoreStor in Object Direct mode or regular mode.

Hardware requirements for standard installations

QoreStor can be installed in one of four modes: Large, Standard, Cloud Optimized, and Demo. Each installation mode has different minimum installation requirements, as described below. Refer to QoreStor installation modes for more information on the installation modes.

NOTE: The table below lists the minimum hardware requirements for installation. Refer to "QoreStor Sizing Guidelines" in the QoreStor Interoperability Guide for information on sizing your QoreStor server.

Table 5: Hardware requirements for installation
  Large Mode Standard Mode Cloud Optimized Mode Demo Mode
CPU cores 32 4 4 4
