PDMWorks Enterprise Notes:

  • The PDMWorks Enterprise server components can run on workstations running XP, but in a production environment, SolidWorks Corporation requires the use of a server-specific operating system.
  • The minimum requirement is an absolute minimum. SolidWorks Corporation cannot guarantee system performance or behaviour for installations running on configurations not meeting the minimum recommended levels.
  • The hard drive requirements are solely dependent on the size of data stored in the system. Therefore, the actual requirements can exceed the values in this recommendation.
  • The recommended configuration is based on a typical installation with approximately 20 users and approximately 60,000 stored documents.
  • Prerequisites for installing any PDMWorks Enterprise component are Windows Installer 3.1 and Microsoft SQL Server 2005 SQL_DMO backward-compatibility drivers. These are automatically installed when running the PDMWorks Enterprise setup.
  • If using an administrative install image for client deployment, these components will not be installed automatically.
  • As the Database Server of PDMWorks Enterprise runs on SQL server, we do not recommend installing any instances of other applications on the database server.
