IBM Maximo Enterprise Adapter

IBM Maximo 6.2 Minimum Hardware and Software Requirements:

IBM® Maximo® is based on an n-Tier architecture, which lets you deploy Maximo across one or more tiers (servers). You can run Maximo on a single physical server or across multiple servers depending on the number of concurrent users and the hardware.

Maximo requires the following minimum hardware and software for Maximo for client workstations and each tier in a Maximo system configuration:
