Its recommended that you use the NTFS file system rather than FAT or FAT32 when running the Application Server on any Microsoft Windows platform.


On UNIXTM, you can check your operating system version using the uname command. Disk space can be checked using the df command.


Note –

Although MacOS is not supported for production deployments, it is supported for development purposes. You can get information on downloading the Macintosh operating system from the GlassFish downloads page https://glassfish.dev.java.net/downloads/v2ur2-b04.html, or through the SDK page where Mac is listed. For example, on the JavaEE 5 SDK Update 5 download page https://cds.sun.com/is-bin/INTERSHOP.enfinity/WFS/CDS-CDS_Developer-Site/en_US/-/USD/ViewProductDetail-Start?ProductRef=java_ee_sdk-5_05-nojdk-oth-JPR@CDS-CDS_Developer.
