System Requirements

Verify that the system fulfills the following minimum requirements. In general, having more resources in the system improves a system's performance.

Minimum of 2 logical CPUs up to 2048 logical CPUs
Minimum x86-64-v2 micro architecture level for CPUs when installing on x86_64 hardware
Tip:
If you're unsure whether the hardware can support x86-64-v2 or higher, consider installing Oracle Linux 8 or Oracle Linux 7 and run the following command:
```
 sudo /lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2 --help | grep x86-64-v
```
If the output includes (supported, searched), next to the micro architecture level, then that level is supported on the CPU. For example, the following shows that micro architecture levels 2 and 3 are supported but not 4:
```
 sudo /lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2 --help | grep x86-64-v
  x86-64-v4
  x86-64-v3 (supported, searched)
  x86-64-v2 (supported, searched)
```
1.5 GB of memory per logical CPU, up to a maximum of 64 TB
At least 10 GB of disk space (20 GB is the recommended minimum)
On UEFI systems, ensure that the target disk uses GPT (GUID Partition Table), as some UEFI firmwares don't support UEFI/MBR boot
