Memory
- Basic memory requirement: 16 GB
- The Data Normalization Module and Universal Name Module require additional memory if you use
these name databases:
- Arabic Plus Pack: 5.5 GB
- Asian Plus Pack - Chinese: 32 MB
- Asian Plus Pack - Japanese: 1.6 GB
- Asian Plus Pack - Korean: 8 MB
- Core Names: 1.1 GB
-
The minimum memory requirement for the Machine Learning Module is 1 GB RAM. The allocation (java process – jvm memory) should be three to four times the size of the input file used in jobs where models are created.
To increase the JVM memory of the Machine Learning Module, open the %install_home%\server\modules\machinelearning\java.vmargs file and set the -Xmx and -Xms parameters so that -Xmx is three to four times the size of the input file used in jobs where models are created, for example:
-Xmsdefinitionm -Xmxdefinitiong
Additional Requirements
- For all Unix and Linux systems, a minimum value
for file descriptors is required. Review the current Installation Guide
for recommended settings. This can be set by running the
ulimit command:
ulimit –n
limitsettingNote: Do not set ulimit to unlimited. Doing so may cause issues with system resources and security alerts that will cause the installation to fail.
- The file size limit needs to be set to 2 GB in order to
install Spectrum™ Technology Platform. To set the file size limit, use the
ulimit command:
ulimit -f 4194304
This is only required to run the installer. It is not required to run Spectrum™ Technology Platform after installation.
- For CentOS and Ubuntu, you must increase the maximum number of memory map areas. To do this, open the /etc/sysctl.conf file and set vm.max_map_count to 262144. Then, reboot the system. and run sysctl vm.max_map_count to verify that the setting has been updated.
- For IBM AIX only, you must download and install
two different distributions of the JDK:
- First, you must download and install Java 8, both the 32-bit version and the 64-bit version, before installing Spectrum™ Technology Platform. If you do not have Java 8 installed, download and install it from:
- Also, download and apply the the AdoptOpenJDK 64-bit version, before installing Spectrum™ Technology Platform. If you do not have this JDK, download and install it from:
- For IBM AIX only, with IBM JDK/JRE, you must apply the properties in spectrum.https.encryption.excludeCipherSuites. Please see the Administration Guide for details.
System Requirements for Enterprise Geocoding and Global Geocoding modules
- The Enterprise Geocoding Module and Global Geocoding Module system requirements:
- minimum: 16 GB RAM, 4 CPU, 100 GB storage
- recommended 32 GB RAM, 8 CPU, 200 GB storage, sufficient for all datasets.
The amount of RAM will depend on how many users on the sytem and how many datasets are loaded.
Requirements for the Big Data Integration Module
For the stages using Hadoop, which are Read from Hive File, Read from Hadoop Sequence, Write to Hadoop Sequence, and Write to Hive File, and for the activities Run Hadoop MapReduce Job and Run Hadoop Pig:- Hadoop version 2.6 and above
- Spark 2.0.1 and above.
