Re: [WDSCI-L] WDSCi Space reductions?

["Mark Phippard" <MarkP@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

What parts of the tool do you use?

Also, is reclaiming hard drive space really that important?  Most PC's
these days are not tight on disk space.  Removing unused apps will not do
anything to help your RAM or CPU usage (which is where most PC's are
limited).

If you only want to use Code/400 or VARPG, you would probably be safe
deleting the C:\Program Files\IBM\WebSphere Studio folder.  (Assuming WDSC
5.0).

You would probably have to put it back anytime you wanted to apply a
Service Pack or do an uninstall.    I would copy the folder from one PC to
a network server so that I could put it back before doing those things.

I hate to say it, but if your boss cannot equip your developers with PC's
that cost under $999, you probably just shouldn't be using PC-based
development tools.  That is not a slam or crticism either.  Your developers
are going to easily burn up a $1000 in productivity using this stuff on old
undersized equipment.

Can anyone tell me if there are any parts of WDSCi that could be removed,
thereby reducing the hard drive requirements?  We will not be using the
JAVA
or web facing portions of the tools and my boss would like to be able to
use
the minimum size PC or maybe even the ones we have.  ;^)

So, I am researching sizes and have really found no references on removing
portions after install, only that there are no choices during install.

Thanks in advance,
