The following table provides information on compatibility between Windows proxy types and versions, and the operating systems that the Windows proxy runs on for BMC Atrium Discovery version 8.3. Windows Proxy Type Earliest Windows Proxy Version Supported Windows Proxy Available for Supported Operating System Credential Windows proxy 7.3 See getServices note below this table. Windows 2003 SP2 (x86 and x86_64) Windows 2008 - Service Pack 2 (x86 and x86_64) Windows 2008 R2 Active Directory Windows proxy 7.3 See getServices note below this table. Windows 2003 SP2 (x86 and x86_64) Windows 2008 - Service Pack 2 (x86 and x86_64) Windows 2008 R2 getServices The getServices discovery method was introduced with BMC Atrium Discovery version 8.1. Windows proxies before version 8.1 do not support this method although are supported in all other respects. getFileSystems The getFileSystems discovery method was introduced with BMC Atrium Discovery version 8.2. Windows proxies before version 8.2 do not support this method although are supported in all other respects. Workgroup Windows proxy deprecated The Workgroup Windows proxy has not been supplied since before BMC Atrium Discovery version 8.2. All of its functionality has been moved into the Active Directory Windows proxy. Windows Proxy type Earliest Windows Proxy Version Supported Windows Proxy Available for Supported Operating System Workgroup Windows proxy Not available with version 8.3. 7.3 See getServices note above this table. Windows Server 2008 (x86 - 32bit) Windows XP - Service Pack 2 (x86 - 32bit) Windows 2003 - Service Pack 2 (x86 - 32bit) Refers to 8.1 version. Minimum host specification The following are the minimum recommended specifications for the Windows proxy host: Component Specification Operating System As stated in tables above CPU 2GHz Intel Pentium® 4 CPU 512k Cache (or equivalent from other manufacturer) Memory 2GB Hard disk 60GB To avoid any impact during resource-intensive periods of discovery, it is strongly recommended not to install the Windows proxy on any host supporting other business services. This is true even if the minimum Windows proxy specification is exceeded, since the Windows proxy will attempt to use what resources are available, in order to optimize scan throughput. Windows discovery communications You should also consider the ports that will need to be opened in any firewall between the appliance and the proxy or proxies, and the proxies and target hosts. Windows discovery metadata Discovery metadata covers Windows as well as UNIX. This provides information about why sessions failed to be established and why scripts failed to run, including information about what credential or Windows proxy was used.
