JTLS-GO

Client Workstation Guidance

Either Linux or Microsoft Windows can be used for JTLS-GO client workstations.

  • If Linux is selected, for consistency and ease of hardware configuration, the JTLS-GO Team suggests that you use the same version of Linux being used for the system servers.
  • If Microsoft Windows is selected, JTLS-GO has currently been approved for use with Windows 10 and 11. The advantage of Microsoft Windows is that the workstations can be used by a generally knowledgeable user for purposes other than JTLS-GO.

Computer hardware equipment is continually being improved. This information represents the nominal JTLS-GO requirements. Users are urged to purchase the most capable machines within their budget constraints. Machines with faster processor speeds (greater than 2.8 GHz), more memory, and more disk space (greater than 100 GB) are acceptable and encouraged. The end result will be a computer hardware architecture that will be useful well into the future.

Client Workstations

Client workstations are used by operators to run JTLS-GO client tools and other exercise support tools.

  • CPU: Modern i7 or greater, 64-bit, 2.8 GHz
  • Memory: 32GB RAM
  • Storage: 500 GB
  • Display monitor: 1920x1080 recommended
  • Graphics: Basic graphics processing, such as integrated Intel UHD Graphics or higher
  • Operating System: One of the following operating systems: Windows 11 or modern Linux distributions capable of supporting Java 8+, check the JTLS-GO version documentation for specific requirements
