will need to create a new virtual machine with the required 16 GB of RAM and at least 160 GB of
hard disk space.

• If you are using an Appliance Edition, you must use an R230 or R630 server. These servers
come with 16 GB RAM. The R220 and R610 servers can support a maximum of 400 endpoints.
See Polycom Server Replacement Migration Guide on how to change servers.

Installation and Upgrade Notes


See the Polycom RealPresence Resource Manager Getting Started Guide for instructions on how to
install and license your product.
See the Polycom RealPresence Resource Manager Upgrade Guide for instructions on how to upgrade
your product.
Polycom delivers RealPresence Resource Manager system upgrades within major (for example, 8.0),
minor releases (for example, 8.x) and updates with maintenance releases (for example, 8.x.x).
If you are running a version prior to 8.0, you must sequentially apply every minor upgrade version until
you get to 8.0.
Customers running 8.0 and above can directly upgrade to the next minor version without worrying about
the maintenance updates in between. For example, you can upgrade directly from 8.2 > 8.3 or from 8.3
>8.4.
If you want to update to a maintenance release of the next minor release, you must first upgrade to the
next minor release and then update to the maintenance release. For example, if you want to upgrade
8.1.x to 8.2.1, you must upgrade to 8.2 first, then update to 8.2.1.
You must be running on either version 10.0.0 or 10.0.1 to upgrade to 10.1.
Polycom supports the following upgrade and migration paths for RealPresence Resource Manager
system.
