Cleo Harmony System Requirements

Hardware

• Dual core processor required, Quad core processor or higher recommended
• 4 GB RAM minimum, 8 GB RAM recommended
• 100Mbit network connection (Gigabit recommended)
• Must have a properly configured Internet connection
• Minimum of 1 GB of disk space for the Cleo Harmony application and associated files (2 GB recommended)
• Disk space required for transferred files depends on number of trading partners, size of the files transferred, and number of files transferred (Recommended minimum disk space for files is 5 MB per trading partner)
• Additional disk space for logging is required, average of 50 KB per transfer (or 50 GB disk space needed for every 1 million transfers), and depending on purge settings.
• Minimum of 500 MB of temporary space

Note: Greater hardware requirements may be necessary depending upon the number of trading partners/simultaneous connections desired. Greater hardware requirements may also be necessary depending upon your choice of Operating System.

Java Runtime Environment

Cleo Harmony currently ships with the version of JRE listed below as appropriate for the installation:

• Oracle 1.8
• IBM FIPS Windows 8

 Other Requirements

• The computer must have a static IP address. The IP address must either be a static external IP address or Cleo VLProxy must be used. If Cleo VLProxy is used, the computer it resides on must have a static external IP address.
• If the computer is behind a firewall, appropriate IP addresses and ports must be open based on Cleo Harmony configuration and trading partners to allow the necessary traffic to be transmitted to and from your trading partners
• To ensure optimal performance, Cleo Harmony should be run on a dedicated computer (e.g. Cleo Harmony should not be run on the same computer as a Web Server)
• For Windows: Cleo Harmony must be installed as a Windows Service. (By default, Windows services run under a local system account and do not see mapped network drives. If you must access a network drive through Cleo Harmony, then you will have to use full network path names (UNC paths) instead of mapped network drives. Also, the network share permissions should be reviewed.)
• For Linux: Cleo Harmony Java processes use random numbers generated by interactions with the computer (for example, mouse movement and keyboard presses). On headless systems, it is possible that the system might use more random numbers than it is able to generate, which might cause the system to run slowly. For information about how to remedy this situation, see Entropy and Linux systems in the Cleo Harmony User Guide.
