Cruise server requirements

Windows

Mac OSX

Linux

Solaris

Extra requirements for Cruise server

The host that runs your Cruise server should have a separate disk partition to store Cruise artifacts. The artifact repository can fill up quickly (especially if you are storing large binaries). If you don't create a separate partition for artifacts and your system disk fills up, Cruise and other applications on your system will behave unexpectedly. You are also likely to end up with corrupted data. Check the section on installing Cruise server for more information on configuring your artifact repository.

Client software for your source code control tool must be installed on both your Cruise server and all Cruise build agents.

Cruise agent requirements

Windows

Mac OSX

Linux

Solaris

Extra requirements for Cruise agent

Cruise agent on its own does not require much memory or CPU. However, you need to ensure computers deployed as build agents have adequate resources to build your projects -- including sufficient disk space to check source code out of source control.

Client software for your source code control tool needs to be installed on all build agents. As well as, any other software required to build your application (if not accessed directly from the project source checked out from source control).
