installation

Hello everybody,

We’ve got a customer who is upgrading from nav 2.60 to 5.00. They do have a lot of external program’s who communicate with nav true dataports. Now the customer wants to implement new external tools which they write themselves. They want to use the SQL-server version of Navision. It’s a small company, only 12 nav-users.

Their current installation is on a HP-server with:

- Processor :
* Type = Xeon
* Internal speed = 3,2 GHz
* External speed = 800 Mhz
* Std/Max = 1/2
* L2 cache = 2 MB
- Geheugen
* Totaal = 3 GB
* Geheugenmodules totaal: 8
- RAID Controller
* HP Smart Array 641
* Gesupporteerd : RAID 0, 1, 5, 10
* SCSI kanalen : 1 intern
- Hard disks
* 2 x 72 GB 10.000 rpm (hot -plug)
* Netto schijfcapaciteit met RAID 1 = 72 GB
128MB Battery-Backed Write Cache Enabler
36GB U320 Hot Plug Hard Disk 15000 rpm
72GB U320 Hot Plug Hard Disk 15000 rpm
Totaal beschikbare hard disk capaciteit in RAID 1 = 36GB + 72GB = 108GB

Now they are testing Navision in a sql-test environment but it’s really slow to use.

I’ve searched the net maybe not enough but I don’t seem to find any minimal systemrequirements.

Does anybody know if it could help to add memory to the server or is the server simply to weak?

Thanks,

Chris.
