What do I need to run the archiver?
We recommend that the archiver be run on a separate machine from the web server for these reasons: • It doesn’t need to run on the same machine as the web server. Adding the archiver to the web server just makes the web server more complicated, and complicated is bad. • Web servers are often “exposed” in a DMZ network. You probably want to protect your archives from intruders who gain access to your web server. • The archiver will be busiest when the web server is busiest. It makes sense to not have these two correlated loads running on the same machine. • A single archiver can store information from many web servers. The pageVault archiver does not require a high-end system. Any recent commodity PC (eg, 2MHz Pentium/Celeron) running Windows or Linux (or any other operating system for which a standard Java 1.4 JVM is available) with 128MB of memory will suffice. Given that, the main resource used by the archiver is disk space. All text and HTML responses are compressed using the ZIP al
