Hi All!

 
This is my first post and i dont know if this is the correct place to place my post.

I have 4 countries that each one has an Enterprise Server (iSeries) running our ERP (JDEDWARDS). Each country has the same ERP S/W. At the present i have around 500 crystal reports written in CR8.5 .Each country has its own set of reports.

The plan is the following:

-Purchase of CR Server XIR2 in the mother country

-Rewrite the reports using repository e.t.c

-DISTRIBUTE the repository to the other servers (one in every country) when the reports are finally ready.

-Minor Local changes in reports  and repository in every country.

Questions:

1) Can i make the repository here in Greece and then import it in a new server in the other countries?

2) How much memory and cpu consumption can i excpect per user? That is to determine what server configuration i need for 20 concurrent users accessing a DB2 on the iseries. 

Please i am on a great need of this redesign and i am having second thoughts mainly because i dont have a clear answer as to if i can distribute my repository at a later stage or not..

If i cant then this means that i have to do it all over again per country...Which seems a little stupid for me...

Thank you all
