FYI I loaded in a VM environment with only 2GB assigned.

The ITSM installer also refers to that requirement, but apparently is not enforcing it, since I am running it right now on a 4GB development server. So it did not complain, which is very good . However, I just hope the installer does not crap out on me complaining there is not enough memory!! My concern is that it seems less and less feasible to load the ITSM suite in a laptop to demo it. Maybe ITSM 7.5.1 will enforce that 6 GB limit in which case my 4 GB dual processor laptop, which is fairly high end by the way, will not be able to run it, or even install it. How about that. So unless you have a "real server" out there that you can remote connect to, you would not be able to demo the app at all. I wonder if BMC has even thought and wondered about all this for their own sales force, and the partners' sales force.... I mean sometimes you are not allowed external network access at a customer site until you have been granted access to. Even then, you always run into the possibility of network issues or something that prevents you to demo the app. Being able to demo the app from the laptop has always been a very good fail safe alternative....one that looks less and less feasible.
