Software

OS: Windows Server 2016 or later.

Rx-Suite has the following software prerequisites:

  • Ruby 2.7

Rx-Suite can be run with the following database engines as a backend:

  • PostgreSQL (preferred)

  • SQL Server 2019 (experimental)

While all modules can be deployed using SQL Server as a backend, support for it is still under development.

Hardware

Recommended
CPU: Quad Core 2.5 Ghz x86-x64
RAM: 16 GB

Minimum
CPU: Dual core 2.0 Ghz x86-x64
RAM: 8 GB

Storage requirements for Rx-Suite vary. It is recommended to provide a system with as much space as possible.

TCP/IP Ports

The following port is required to be open to the internet for communication with the licensing and update server:
3333

In addition, each Rx-Suite module uses it’s own port for communication with Rx-Hub. These ports can be defined as required. The defaults for each module are as follows:

Rx-Hub: 3000
Rx-Xplore: 3001
Rx-Reports: 3002
Rx-Dashboards: 3006
Rx-PDF: 3007
Rx-Inventory: 3009
Rx-Workstations: 3025
Rx-Site: 3050

The Rx-Universe API is not an Rx-Suite module, but does integrate with Rx-Suite. The TCP/IP port defined can be used to access the Swagger web GUI for testing the API endpoints.

Rx-Universe API: 5645

Rx-Site + SSL support

An rx-site.com subdomain URL will be provided to the lab along with a certificate for SSL encryption. Lab personnel are responsible for ensuring that the port Rx-Site uses is open as required at the network level.
