The 2.5 stuff is only required in order to detect memory on Windows. My primary box is RHEL5 and runs 2.4, it works fine there.
- considering the audience of this tool, I think you should explain in the usage text which type of workload implies each database type (DW, OLTP, Web, Mixed, Desktop).
Once I'm done with the docs I'll refer over to those, it's too much to put into the usage without cluttering it.
- it would be nice to be able to define the architecture (32-64 bits) from the command line (especially considering I won't be able to run it on our target boxes which are all RHEL 5 :))
I'm starting to lean toward making everything that gets detected as also being possible to override, for these case. I want to make this just work in as many cases as possible, but the situation where someone is configuring/testing on a system other than the server is pretty common. Now that I think about it I often setup configs on my 32-bit laptop and them move them over onto 64-bit servers.
