    Installing Satellite 5.5 on Red hat 6 vm.

    Posted on

    I've got a new project to provision a Red hat 6 vm and install Satellite 5.5 on it. I will be using the embedded Oracle Database, but i'm a little fuzzy on the actual hardware requirements and setup. For comparison, the "current" production server has these specs. I want to know if these specs should be used for the RHN Satellite install of 5.5 with Red hat 6 and if not, what is the actual hardware layout recommended. I have looked at a few installation articles, but I can't see a clear path yet to the requirements.

    Red Hat Satellite 5.4.1
    Redhat Enterprise 5
    VMware vSphere Client 5.1.0
    4 cpu's
    8192 MB Ram

    4 Disks:
    One-40gigs of Thick Provision Lazy Zeroed
    Two-250gigs of Thick Provision Lazy Zeroed
    Three-250gigs of Thick Provision Lazy Zeroed
    Four-40gigs of Thick Provision Eager Zeroed
