RMS 3.x server requirements

RMS 2.x could be installed an run on a PC with Windows XP. A server machine however was prefered.
RMS 3.x system requirements state Windows Server 2000 SP4 or Windows Server 2003 SP1. Does this mean Windows XP is no longer supported?

  • Supported OS for RMS 3.x

    Starting with RMS 3.0, only server operating systems are supported. RMS is designed for enterprise support and run as a service. It is impossible to continue to support desktop PC's for this application. Currently RMS supports Windows 2000 Server (SP4) and Windows 2003 Server (SP1).

    Although minimum hardware requirements for RMS 3.x are listed, can anyone offer a more realistic set of server specifications. I am preparing for a new install that will include 24 Netlinx controlled classrooms, as well as an additional 80 IP Link monitored rooms.

    RMS MM on a VMWare

    Greetings,

    I am trying to find out if VMWare has been listed as an "unsupported" platform to install RMS MM on anywhere in the brochures and/or datasheets.

    Thanks,

    I do all my setup and testing on a Windows 2003 Enterprise server running in VMware, it makes it alot easier, giving me access to both machines on multiple desktops on the same PC.

    Works fine.
