Faronics Power Save Requirements Guide
Core Database Requirements
The following system requirements must be met to successfully install Core Database:
•
Microsoft SQL Server 2005 SP2 or
•
Microsoft SQL Server 2008 SP2 (all editions) or
•
Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Express
Workstation Requirements
The Core Agent can be installed on any computer running the following Microsoft Windows
operating systems:
•
Windows 2000 SP4
•
32- or 64-bit editions of Windows XP SP3, Windows Vista and Windows 7
•
32- or 64-bit editions of Windows Server 2003 and Windows Server 2008
The Core Agent requires that Microsoft Internet Explorer 6 (IE6), or greater, be installed.
Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Express is included with Faronics Core Console and is
perfectly acceptable for deployment sizes of 500 machines or less. Deployments of
500 to 1,000 machines can use the Express edition but may experience
performance issues. For deployments over 1,000 computers it is highly
recommended to use the Standard or Enterprise versions of SQL Server.
On Windows Server 2003 and Windows XP 64-bit, the WMI Windows Installer
Provider is required but is not installed by default. To install this Windows
component, select the
WMI Windows Installer Provider
component found under
Add or Remove Programs > Add/Remove Windows Components > Management
and Monitoring Tools > Details
.
