The Identity Server is the second component you install, and it can be installed on Linux or Windows:
Clients that authenticate directly to the Identity Server can use any browser or operating system.
The Linux machine requires the following hardware and software:
4 GB RAM.
Dual CPU or Core (3.0 GHz or comparable chip).
100 GB hard disk.
This amount is recommended to ensure ample space for logging in a production environment. This disk space must be local and not remote.
One of the following operating systems:
SLES 10 SP2 or SP3, either with 32-bit or 64-bit operating system on x86-32 and x86-64 hardware.
SLES 11 or SLES 11 SP1, either with 32-bit or 64-bit operating system on x86-32 and x86-64 hardware.
Because of library update conflicts, you cannot install Access Manager on a Linux User Management machine.
