CM-Server require a Java Application Server with Java Enterprise Edition 6 (JRE 1.6).
We recommend the following application servers:
We recommend Linux with kernel version 2.6.24 or better and Windows XP up (64 bit, Windows 7 up) respectively.
Please follow the recommendations of your middleware vendor.
For a typical installation with 50 concurrent users you should arrange for:
Please plan for sufficient network capacity between middleware components, i.e., between database, CM-server and web-container.
Primary access to the CM system is by the CM web client. Users will run the client in a web browser. Connecting over SSL is possible. Client machines will need.
Web-Browser:
Administration client machines:
Hardware:
Required disk space depends heavily on the type of usage and has to be determined individually for an installation. Typical installations with 50 concurrent users will require 50 Gb of table space and a further 5 Gb every year of operation. Please follow the sytem requirements of your database vendor. We advise for at least 4 Gb of RAM for the database server machine.
The ConSol CM system offers an e-Mail interface for the POP3, IMAP and SMTP protocols. It can communicate with one or more e-Mail servers. Connection via SSL is possible.
REST:
Ticket and contact data could be easily accessed with the REST interface. The simple web service also supports writing access.
Other optional interfaces (file, FTP, WebService, ...) are implemented using the integrated Enterprise Service Bus.
