SAS Metadata Server on Linux for x64

SAS Products installed to this machine:
  • Base SAS 9.3
  • SAS/CONNECT 9.3
Disk Space Consumed by Installed Products: 687 MB
The SAS Metadata Server is supported on Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6 (64-bit version) on the x64 chip family.
SAS recommends that you deploy SAS Metadata Server on a 64-bit host system. The SAS Metadata Server is multi-threaded and multi-core server hardware (typically quad core or higher) is recommended. A dedicated machine for the SAS Metadata Server is recommended to simplify tuning, management, and diagnostics, but is not required. The disk I/O performance of any server-class system should be sufficient. Memory requirements are highly dependent on the product mix and usage, but 8GB of RAM is sufficient for most large deployments. 4GB of RAM is sufficient for many deployments and should be considered a minimum unless the specific deployment is tested and verified to require less memory.
