System Requirements
Hardware
All Incredibuild for Linux components must be run on 64 bit machines or containers
Note: Whenever cores are mentioned, they are logical cores.
| Machine | CPU | RAM | Storage | Network |
|---|---|---|---|---|
|
Coordinator |
4 Cores |
8 GB |
10 GB (any storage device). To generate detailed logs in case of issues, an additional 10 GB is required. |
Static IP1 1 Gbps |
|
Initiator |
4 Cores |
Minimum of 4 GB per core on the machine |
The space required to successfully build the codebase under test. (SATA SSD or equivalent). We recommend doubling the space required to successfully build the codebase if possible. When using the Build Monitor it can use several GB per build for large builds. It is posssible to disable the Build Monitor, or to limit the number of saved builds in the Build Monitor. Detailed logging also requires additional space. Using local Build Cache requires additional space. |
1 Gbps |
|
Helper |
4 Cores |
Minimum of 4 GB per core on the machine |
15 GB (any storage device). Additional space may be required depending on size of the output of the task assigned to the helper. To generate detailed logs in case of issues, additional space may be required. |
1 Gbps |
|
Build Cache Service |
8 Cores |
16 GB |
At least twice the size required to compile the codebase. Use be SSD disk only. |
10 Gbps |
Note: When using detailed logs for extended troubleshooting, additional storage space is required.
Ports
The following TCP ports are used by various Incredibuild services. Make sure your network level firewalls, and operating systems firewalls allow communication through these ports.
Most port numbers can be changed during installation and in the Coordinator Manager.
The following ports are used by the Coordinator to communicate with services running on the Internet:
| Service Name | Location | TCP Port | Used by | Can change? |
|---|---|---|---|---|
|
Telemetry |

Network
-
Network Speed: Minimum 100 Mbps, recommended 1 Gbps or higher.
-
Location: The machines should be on same physical LAN or connected through a VPN (same LAN is recommended).
-
Incredibuild Cloud: To active Incredibuild for Cloud, see the requirements in the Ports table above, and also Cloud Network Requirements.
Software
-
Root Permission: Installation and upgrade require root permissions to install Incredibuild daemons. After installation, everyday users do not need root permissions. Note that Incredibuild daemons run automatically with root permissions during restart, no action is needed to enable this.
-
SELinux: We strongly recommend disabling SELinux on all Incredibuild for Linux components.
-
If your linux distribution does not have the bzip2 package, you will need to add it manually.
User Interface
-
Screen resolution: Recommended 1920 x 1080, Minimum 960 x 1080
-
Supported browser: Chrome
