How to size a Windchill 12.0.0.0 Server?

[lchavarria]

Hello all, hope you are well.

Do you know some advises to size the server for Windchill 12.0.0.0. In previews versions I used a document called "Hardware Sizing Guidelines" but I can not find something similar for 12.0.0.0 version.

Any ideas? 

Thanks in advance for the help.

Hi  Luis @lchavarria ,

The following documentation was published recently for Windchill 12.0 Hardware Sizing Guidelines:

• Windchill 12.x Server Hardware Sizing Guidelines - Microsoft Windows Platform with Oracle Database
• Windchill 12.x Server Hardware Sizing Guidelines - Linux Platform with Oracle Database
• Windchill 12.0 Server Hardware Sizing Guidelines – Linux Platform with Azure SQL Database on Microsoft Azure

Hope this will help

Thanks,

Gaurav

@Gaurav_Amrutkar,

How about "Windchill 12.x Server Hardware Sizing Guidelines - Microsoft Windows Platform with SQL Database".  Is there one of those somewhere?

Hello Tom @TomU ,

As per the internal reference,  Windchill 12.x Server Hardware Sizing Guidelines - Microsoft Windows Platform with SQL Database is not published yet however, in the meantime the following guide can be referred :

Windchill and Pro/INTRALINK 11.x Server Hardware Sizing Guidelines - Microsoft Windows Platform with SQL Server Database

Thanks,

Why wouldn't the MS SQL document be created at the same time?

That document states SQL Server 2014 SP1 is for 11.x but what about 12.x?

When is the MS SQL document sizing guide supposed to be released?

The 12.0.0.0 Software Matrices Guide says that SQL Server 2016, 2017and 2019 are supported for Windchill 12.

I don't think the sizing guides change much from release to release.

My servers are sized for about 1200 users if you go by the guides and the hardware we are using. Not bad performance for 5 CAD users and about 10 Windchill users.
