Hi,

Can someone redirect to a link or help me answer this question?

What are the recommenced Hardware for a Copgnos 10.2.2 installation regarding:
- Disk-space Installation
- Extra Disk-space per user
- Memory (basic Installation)
- Extra Memory per added user

This based on a Windows 2012 Server.

Thank you in Advanced,

Cognos sizes their systems based on named users.
Without any details, a rule of thumg sizing for a simple single server would be:

- 50 gig disk space.
- 16 gig memory, and 32 when you know you will be using the DQM reporting engine.
- 4 cpu cores.

Keep in mind that the BI server license could have been bought on a PVU license model, restricting you in the number of cpu cores you are allowed to assign.
