Memory Requirements The minimum supported memory for installation of NAS Base Server 200 for OpenVMS VAX Systems, with all components and subcomponents installed, is 32 MB. The performance and memory usage of NAS Base Server 200 for OpenVMS VAX and applications based on it are particularly sensitive to sys- tem configuration. Full configuration of all subcomponents may require memory in excess of the minimum quoted above. Additional memory may also be required based on system loading and usage patterns of the com- ponents. More or less memory may be required depending on whether clients and servers execute on the same system or on different systems. Additional memory may also improve performance of one or more components.
