The performance and memory usage of Compaq NAS Base Server 200 for Open- VMS Alpha and applications based on it are particularly sensitive to system configuration. Full configuration of all subcomponents may re- quire memory in excess of the minimum quoted. 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.

This count refers to the disk space required on the system disk. The sizes are approximate; actual sizes may vary depending on the customer's system environment, configuration, and software options. For example, actual disk space required may be less if the customer does not in- stall some components or subcomponents. Customers may require addi- tional disk space to create or expand component databases or to cre- ate user files.
