You're planning to install OES NetWare on an older server which has a Pentium II 266 MHz CPU, 512 MB of RAM, a 10 GB hard disk drive, and a single PCI network board. Will the installation be…

The correct answer is A. Yes, all prerequisite requirements have been met. The described server meets every OES NetWare minimum hardware requirement, including CPU class, RAM, disk space, and network board type, so the installation will succeed.

OES NetWare Server Installation and Configuration

Question

You're planning to install OES NetWare on an older server which has a Pentium II 266 MHz CPU, 512 MB of RAM, a 10 GB hard disk drive, and a single PCI network board. Will the installation be successful?

Options

  • AYes, all prerequisite requirements have been met.
  • BNo, OES NetWare doesn't support PCI network boards.
  • CNo, OES NetWare requires a minimum of 1 gigabyte of RAM.
  • DNo, OES NetWare requires a Pentium III 750 MHz or faster CPU.
  • ENo, OES NetWare requires that the system have two or more CPUs.

Why each option

The described server meets every OES NetWare minimum hardware requirement, including CPU class, RAM, disk space, and network board type, so the installation will succeed.

AYes, all prerequisite requirements have been met.Correct

OES NetWare specifies a minimum of a Pentium II CPU, 256 MB of RAM (512 MB recommended), adequate hard disk space, and a supported network board. The server in question has a Pentium II 266 MHz CPU, 512 MB of RAM, a 10 GB hard disk, and a standard PCI NIC - each of which meets or exceeds the stated minimums. PCI network boards are standard supported hardware, and a single-processor configuration is fully permitted.

BNo, OES NetWare doesn't support PCI network boards.

OES NetWare fully supports standard PCI network boards; there is no bus-type restriction that would disqualify a PCI NIC.

CNo, OES NetWare requires a minimum of 1 gigabyte of RAM.

OES NetWare does not require 1 GB of RAM; 512 MB meets or exceeds the recommended RAM specification.

DNo, OES NetWare requires a Pentium III 750 MHz or faster CPU.

OES NetWare does not require a Pentium III 750 MHz processor; a Pentium II satisfies the minimum CPU requirement.

ENo, OES NetWare requires that the system have two or more CPUs.

OES NetWare does not require a multi-processor system; a single CPU is a fully supported configuration.
