■
If you plan on running more than two separate instances of Sun Java System Web Server on
your system, an additional 16 MB RAM for each server instance.
■
Paging space at least as large as the amount of RAM on your system (twice the amount of
RAM is recommended).
■
If you intend to use hostnames during the Sun Java System Web Server installation, DNS
properly congured with an entry for your server in a DNS server.
■
A static IP address on your machine.
Other Technical Requirements
Once you have the proper hardware and software necessary to install Sun Java System Web
Server, you should make sure that you meet the following requirements:
■
You know the host name and IP address of your server computer.
■
Your server has a DNS alias. For information on creating a DNS alias for your server, see
“Creating a DNS Alias for the Server” on page 19.
■
Your server has a user account on UNIX, Linux, or Windows. See “UNIX and Linux User
Accounts for the Server” on page 19
.
■
You have two port numbers - one for the Administration Server and the other for the rst
Sun Java System Web Server server instance. For information on choosing port numbers for
your server, see
“Choosing Unique Port Numbers” on page 21.
Creating a DNS Alias for the Server
If your server will run on one machine among many in a network, you or your system
administrator should set up a DNS CNAME record or an alias that points to the actual server
machine. Later, you can change the actual hostname or IP address of the server machine
without having to change all URLs that point to the server machine.
For example, you might call the server my_server.my_company.com and then use an alias like
www.my_company.com. So the URLs to documents on your server would always use the www
alias instead of my_server.
UNIX and Linux User Accounts for the Server
When the Sun Java System Web Server starts, it runs with a UNIX or Linux user account that
you specify during installation. Any child processes of the server are created with this account as
