System Requirements

You can install Resonate RFID Reader Management on a physical or virtual machine(s) that meets or exceeds the following minimum requirements. For a multi-node configuration, each machine must meet these requirements.
These machines should be dedicated to running Resonate RFID Reader Management. System capacities are calculated under the assumption that you will not be running other business applications or services on these computers.

A multi-node configuration sets Resonate in high availability mode. High availability mode requires multiple machines and further requires an odd number of machines. This guide describes how to set up a three (3) machine (node) configuration. It is possible to install a configuration that has more nodes (for example, 5 or 7 or more) to get higher reliability and availability (but not higher capacity). If this is required, contact your Zebra salesperson, who can help you work up a special project and statement of work with Resonate product management and Professional Services.
If you require Resonate alerts sent via email, you must also configure an SMTP server; you need the IP address or hostname of the SMTP server and its port. If you require Resonate alerts sent via REST API to an external case management system, you must configure a webhook URL and login.
