Install Transflo DMS Client and Server

• Microsoft Windows 2003 Server R2, SP2 (deprecated/end-of-support in 2018)

• Microsoft Windows Server 2008 R2 x64 (deprecated/end-of-support in 2019)

• Microsoft Windows Server 2012, 2016, or newer

Disk requirements for storage of one million documents:

• Storage for SQL Server Database: 5.0 GB

• Transflo Server Storage: 80 GB

Use this as a baseline for calculating the storage you will require in your environment.

Typical Environment (process under 50,000 documents per day)

• Processor:

  Minimum: 2.4 GHz Dual Core

  Recommended 2.4 GHz Quad Core or better

• Memory:

  Minimum: 4 GB RAM

  Recommended: 8 GB RAM or more

Large Environment (process over 50,000 documents per day)

• Processor:

  Minimum: 3.0 GHz Quad Core

  Recommended: 3.0 Ghz 6 - 8 Core or better

• Memory:

  Minimum: 8 GB RAM

  Recommended: 16 GB RAM or more

Memory Calculation Guidelines

• Each Gateway Process:

  Minimum: 150 MB RAM

• Rendition Print Service:

  Minimum: 256 MB RAM

  Recommended: 512 MB RAM

• TRANSFLO® Web Service:

  Minimum: 2 GB RAM

  Recommended: 3 GB RAM (for Small/Medium environments) or 4 GB RAM (for Large Customer)

• ezView Web Site:

  Minimum: 1 GB RAM

  Recommended: 2 GB RAM (for Small/Medium Customer) or 4 GB RAM (for Large Customer)

  If you plan to put several services on the same server, sum the memory requirements of each and take the best recommended processor between them.

Example Server Specification Calculation Scenario:

To set up a small to mid-size client who wants to process under 50,000 documents per day, plan to install the following on a single server:

• TRANSFLO® Server

• Microsoft SQL Server

• 4 Gateway Services

• Rendition Print Service

Processor:

• 2.4 GHz Quad Core

Memory Calculations:

• Operating System: 512 MB

• SQL Server: 2 GB

• Gateway Services: 600 MB (4 x 150 MB)

• Rendition Print Service: 256 MB

• TRANSFLO® Web Service: 2 GB

Approximate Total:

• 5.5 GB

This scenario requires a minimum of 8 GB of memory on the machine to allow for growth and for days of heavy load. In this case, it is recommended to set SQL Server to fixed 2 GB, not unlimited. This will prevent SQL Server from allocating all available memory, and limits its memory usage.

This information is based on averages. The actual requirement could be different depending on the customer mode of operation. This information is intended to give an initial estimate that should work for most of the scenarios.

Document data is stored in a database on a centralized server. Document images are stored on the server file system. The server also hosts a web-based administration tool, a web-based management reporting application, and rendition print and transfer services.

The following Transflo DMS Gateway module applications also reside on the server:

• Transflo Gateway CSV Module
• Transflo Gateway eScan Module
• Transflo Gateway Express Index Module
• Transflo Gateway Field Imaging Extractor Module
• Transflo Gateway File Source Module
• Transflo Gateway Inbound Email Module
• Transflo Gateway Inbound Fax Module
• Transflo Gateway Outbound Email Module
• Transflo Gateway PBS Export Module
• Transflo Gateway PBS Import Module
• Transflo Gateway Server Zip File Output Module
• Transflo Gateway Simple XML Module

The applications are stored on a client platform. Communication between client and server uses a Microsoft Windows Server service known as the Transflo system agent service that communicates with the Transflo client.

The following client applications are included in the Transflo DMS 4.9 system:

• Barcode Engine
• Batch Scan
• Field Imaging
• QuickView
• Import
• Capture (index)
• Index Management
• IndexValidation
• Cache Management
