SA account was required, this requirement has been removed. However, the account must have SA

“sysadmin” privileges.

6) Validate at least 8Gb of RAM on the Host machine (Note: Testing on a Virtual Machine, many VMs

default to a 4Gb RAM environment, this will need to be increased prior to installation)

Proficy Plant Applications Report (Web Server) 1) Install Required Roles & Features

a. Microsoft IIS Version 8.0 or higher (depending on Operating System) – Installing IIS Roles &

Service Pre-Requisites

b. IIS DefaultAppPool needs to be set to enable 32-Bit applications
