Designing Your Migration

Assess Your Hardware and Third-Party Software

Part of designing your migration is to evaluate how your hardware and third-party software--operating systems, Web application servers, Java runtimes, and so on-- match the requirements for SAS 9.2.

As a general rule, migration requires additional disk space equal to at least twice the amount of disk space that you currently use for your metadata repositories and WebDAV content. For example, if your SAS 9.1.3 metadata repositories and WebDAV content currently occupy 2GB of disk space, you will need at a minimum an additional 4GB of disk space to migrate to SAS 9.2.

Consult the following Web sites for the latest SAS 9.2 system requirements and any alert-level SAS Notes:
