System Requirements

Supported Platforms

The MFT Platform Server for IBM i is supported on IBM i Series

32-bit and 64-32-bit Versions 5.4, 6.1, and 7.1.

Note: Support for TIBCO Managed File Transfer is provided for

IBM products that are currently in the mainstream support. When

IBM reaches end of mainstream support they will fix security

issues but there are limits on what they will do for non-security

related issues. Because of this we may run into a problem where

there is an IBM i issue that will not be addressed by IBM that may

affect the level of support that TIBCO would be able to provide.

Therefore, support for TIBCO MFT may be limited in some

circumstances for the IBM I products that are in the Extended

Support phase. Once an IBM product reached the end of the

Extended Support phase TIBCO no longer provides any support for

that product.

Minimum Hardware

• 1 GB of memory

• 100 MB of disk space

• An appropriate amount of additional local storage is

recommended for file transfer data

Sizing Guidelines

• In addition to the above minimum requirements:

• For up to 100 concurrent transfers, two or more processor

cores at 2.5 GHz or faster

(12)

• For more than 200 concurrent transfers, eight or more

processor cores at 2.5 GHz or faster

• One additional processor core at 2.5 GHz or better for

extensive use of encryption or compression
