Requirements

Robo-FTP

Software Requirements

Robo-FTP is supported on x86 and x64 versions of Windows Server 2008 R2, 2012 (R1 and R2), 2016, and 2019 (including Core edition), as well as Windows desktop editions 7, 8, 8.1, 10, and 11.

Robo-FTP is available in 32 and 64 bit versions and requires version 4.6 of the Microsoft .NET Framework, the Visual Studio 2019 C++ Runtime, and SQL Compact Edition 4.0 SP1. The full installer includes all of these dependencies.

The Robo-FTP requires a database backend. The software comes with SQLite which is sufficient for most customers. Microsoft SQL Server/Express and Oracle are also supported.

The Robo-FTP installer does not itself require rebooting but the dependencies installed on the initial install may.

Hardware Requirements

RAM: 512Mb plus 50 MB per job and/or per instance of Robo-FTP.exe if running scripts outside the Framework (each actively running Robo-FTP script uses one instance of Robo-FTP.exe).

CPU: We recommend having 1 available CPU core for every 10 to 20 actively running job, depending on the nature of the processes being automated. For example, encryption and decryption may be more processor-intensive than other activities such as renaming files.

DISK: We recommend a minimum of 2 GB of hard drive space to install the software and have room to maintain a typical number of logs. Be sure to provision sufficient additional hard drive space for the files you wish to manage using the software.

Robo-FTP Server

Software Requirements

Robo-FTP Server is supported on 32 bit and 64 bit editions of Windows Vista SP1, Server 2008 (R1 and R2), 2012 (R1 and R2), 2016 (except Nano as it can't run 32 bit apps), and 2019, and Windows 7, 8, 8.1, and 10.

Robo-FTP Server is 32 bit software and requires version 4.0 of the Microsoft .NET Framework, the x86 Visual Studio 2013 C++ Runtime, and the platform specific (x64 or x86 depending on your OS) version of SQL Compact Edition 4.0 SP1. The full installer includes all of these dependencies.

The Robo-FTP Server installer does not itself require rebooting but the dependencies installed on the initial install may.

Hardware Requirements

RAM: We recommend 40 MB for every 100 concurrent users.

CPU: We recommend having 1 available CPU core for every 1250 concurrent users.

DISK: We recommend a minimum of 2 GB of hard drive space to install the software and have room to maintain a typical number of logs. Be sure to provision sufficient additional hard drive space for the files you wish to manage using the software.
