To use PNMSj Server on the Solaris OS, RAM and HDD device require the enumerated
capacity in the following tables.
(The same calculation applies when using Solaris Zones Virtual Server.)

Less than or equal to 8,000
Less than or equal to 6,000
Less than or equal to 4,000
Less than or equal to 2,000

directory that is stored the log file by PNMSj. The default
path is "/var/opt/NEC/PNMSj". This capacity is
calculated by stored 90 days log.
*3: 2GB is reserved for OS.

Appendix A How to calculate "Base NE point"

The necessary capacity of various memories is different depending on the NE type. Then,
the necessary capacity of various memories is calculated based on "NEO STD" equipment.
The number of other equipment is converted to the number of "NEO STD" equipment by
using the enumerated coefficient in the following tables. This number of "NEO STD"
equipment is called "Base NE Point".

(Function)
Base NE Point = number of NE of type A * coefficient of type A
+ number of NE of type B * coefficient of type B
+ number of NE of type C * coefficient of type C
+ ...
e.g.) The case of using 1,000 NE (NEO STD), 1,000 NE (iPASOLINK 200), 1,000 NE
(iPASOLINK 400) and 50 NE (5000S).
Base NE Point = (1,000 * 1) + (1,000 * 1) + (1,000 * 4) + (50 * 80) = 10,000
