The ArchivistaVM module requires 64-bit AMD or Intel processors that have virtualisation chipsets. In principle, this is always the case with AMD processors. However, some Intel processors, in particular so-called entry-level CPUs (e.g. Atom), do not support virtualisation.
: Even if the processor is suited for virtualisation, it is possible that this has been disabled in BIOS. If this is the case, the appropriate options must be enabled in BIOS.
The recommended hardware configuration for virtualisation includes at least four core processors (CPUs), with high hard disk throughput and plenty of memory (RAM), as the resources must be divided by the number of running instances. We highly recommend hard drive arrays (software RAID).
