To create an all-in-one deployment, you install one Filr appliance. By default Filr also includes the MySQL database and Filrsearch functions.
With few exceptions, small deployments are only suitable for proof-of-concept deployments, which, by definition, do not require extensive planning.
For a production deployment, you should use the Filr 3.4 Planning Your Filr Deployment—Best Practices guide and associated planning worksheets to gauge whether a small deployment could meet your organization’s production needs.
The Micro Focus best practice recommendation is always an expandable deployment, which is the focus of this guide.
Most of the requirements in Section 3.0, System Requirements apply to small deployments.
However, minimum RAM and CPU recommendations are increased to handle the database and search functions running in addition to Filr.
12 GB of RAM (16 GB is recommended)
4 CPUs.
80% of the RAM should be dedicated to the Java heap.
For information about adjusting the Java heap settings, see Changing JVM Configuration Settings
in the Filr 3.4.1: Administrative UI Reference.
