System requirements
This topic lists the hardware and third-party software requirements for the BMC Atrium Orchestrator product.
You must allocate sufficient resources to a component that is running in a VM. Ensure that BMC Atrium Orchestrator is the only product running on its host computer. System performance is affected by the total size of the modules being activated, not the number of modules in the environment.
For complete compatibility information about BMC Atrium Orchestrator 7.7, see Product Availability and Compatibility (requires a Support login). Log in using your support ID, search for BMC Atrium Orchestrator Platform and choose the current release to display compatibility information.
The following table lists the system requirements for the BMC Atrium Orchestrator components.
System requirements
Component | Application memory1 | Number of processors (quad core or better) | Runtime disk space requirements | Installation disk space requirements |
|---|---|---|---|---|
Repository | 2 GB | 1 | 40 GB | 100 MB |
CDP | 8 GB2 | 2 | 40 GB | 140 MB |
AP | 8 GB2 | 2 | 40 GB | 140 MB |
LAP | 4 GB | 2 | 40 GB | 100 MB |
HA-CDP | 8 GB2 | 2 | 40 GB | 140 MB |
BMC Atrium Orchestrator Development Studio | 2 GB | 2 | 20 GB | 300 MB |
BMC Atrium Orchestrator Operator Control Panel | 1 GB | 1 | 1 GB | 100 MB |
Graphing server | 1 GB | 1 | 1 GB | 100 MB |
1 Add the application memory noted to the operating system memory in accordance with the operating system vendor recommendations.
2 If your environment runs with high concurrent volumes and workflow complexities, increase the recommended application memory by a factor of 2x or 3x: from 8 GB to 16 GB or 24 GB; from 4 GB to 8 GB or 12 GB.
These recommendations are for production environments. Development grids may only require half the application memory documented above.

Note
For optimal performance, BMC Software recommends that you use a 64-bit operating system. If your BMC Atrium Orchestrator configuration will run medium or large loads, you must use a 64-bit system.
Implementing system parameters in standard environments
To implement the parameters from the preceding table in a single-server demonstration/POC environment, you must provide:
- 6-8 GB for the repository, CDP, BMC Atrium Orchestrator Operator Control Panel, and graphing server
- 2 CPUs
- 10 GB of runtime disk space allocated to BMC Atrium Orchestrator
To implement the parameters from the preceding table in a two-server production environment, you must provide:
- Server 1: 2 GB, 1 CPU, 40 GB disk space allocated to the repository
- Server 2: 8 GB, 2 CPUs, 40 GB disk space allocated to a CDP and BMC Atrium Orchestrator Operator Control Panel
How log files affect disk space
During runtime, each component creates at least one log file set, the size of which depends on your configuration. The CDP, AP, and BMC Atrium Orchestrator Development Studio can also be configured to create a second log file set.
An individual log file can retain up to 4 MB of data. Upon reaching the maximum log size, the active log file is archived and a new active log is created. A standard log set might contain one active log and up to nine archive log files, each requiring 40 MB of disk space.
Third-party software requirements
The following table lists the libraries and Internet software required to run BMC Atrium Orchestrator and its components:
Third-party software requirements
Requirements | Notes |
|---|---|
Network software | |
Supported operating systems have built-in TCP/IP network software.
| Network software requirements for BMC Atrium Orchestrator instances running on 64-bit OSs are the same as the requirements for those running on 32-bit versions. |
Internet browsers and plug-ins | |
| Use only these products and versions to run BMC Atrium Orchestrator Operator Control Panel, Grid Manager, and Repository Manager |
Operating system libraries | |
Linux | |
Install all default operating system libraries. | |
Solaris | |
Install all default operating system libraries. |
