Before You Begin

Check Requirements

Check that you meet the latest technical requirements:

Check RAM Usage

Use Windows Task Manager to track how much RAM your existing ENPS Servers use at different times of the day. If a server is consistently using above 85% RAM then you should consider increasing the RAM on the server before installing/upgrading ENPS.

Per the Server Requirements:

32GB+ is sufficient for many sites, but more may be needed to ensure optimal performance at sites with larger archives.

As a rule of thumb, have as least as much physical RAM as the size of your index.

Check IP Addresses

ENPS servers require static IP addresses, not reserved DHCP IP addresses.

  • ENPS servers may not run any other services except SNMP.

  • ENPS servers cannot be Active Directory Domain Controllers.

Check MOS Compatibility

Contact your MOS vendors to make sure the version of your MOS devices are compatible with the version of ENPS you want to install or upgrade to.

ENPS 9.5 supports integration with HTML5 media plugins as a replacement for ActiveX. We recommend checking with your MOS vendors to see if you can take advantage of this option.
