Non-standard installations

i2 TextChart Server was designed to be installed and run on Linux-based server systems. However, the installation procedure and the software itself are Java-based, and so it's possible to install and run the system on other operating systems, including Microsoft Windows and Mac OS X.

On most variants of Linux and Microsoft Windows, the installed services are configured to start automatically. For other operating systems, you must issue commands in a terminal window.

To run the manager software manually, follow these steps after installation:

Start a terminal or command prompt window on the installation system.
Navigate to the installation directory. Then, issue the following command:
```
java -Djava.util.logging.config.file=logger.properties --jar RosokaServerManager.jar
```
The manager software then stays running in the terminal window.

To run the worker software manually, follow these steps after installation:

Start a terminal or command prompt window on the installation system.
Navigate to the installation directory. Then, if the system has only 4 GB of memory, issue this command:
```
java --Xmx3g --Djava.util.logging.config.file=logger.properties --jar RosokaServerWorker.jar
```
If the system has more than 4GB of memory, issue this command:
```
java --Xmx4g --Djava.util.logging.config.file=logger.properties --jar RosokaServerWorker.jar
```
The worker software then stays running in the terminal window.
You must provide the worker with a minimum of 3 GB of RAM. Otherwise, document process, especially for larger documents, can fail.
