STEP 2 - BEFORE UBUNTU INSTALLATION
Step 1. Requirements
Hardware
Please read hardware upgrading to view the pro's and con's of virtualisation, if you are considering virtualisation.
At the moment we use a DELL R710 server. With the following specifications:
- 2x Intel E5650 64 bit = 12 real CPU's and 24 virtual CPU's
- 12GB 1333Hz RAM
- 400GB RAID5 disk array using 10K RPM disks
- 4x 100MB Ethernet ports
Software
- We use the LTS versions of Ubuntu for our servers.
- Please click here to find out why Ubuntu was selected as the server operating system platform.
Download and burn one of ISO images to a blank CD. Do not copy it as data, it MUST be burned as an ISO image.
If you have problems burning your own CD, then please ask your IT support people to help you.
The server installation CD can be downloaded from:
- Note: DSpace versions =>4.X require Ubuntu 14.04 LTS.
