  **12.2.1 Vertical scalability**
  
  You can scale Content Manager OnDemand vertically by expanding the system, by using a 
  larger system, through application design, or through parallel archive access. 
  
  **Expanding the system**
  Content Manager OnDemand is vertically scalable if the system that it is running on is 
  scalable. Vertical scalability is achieved by adding more hardware to the system. This 
  hardware might be in the form of faster processors, more processors, memory, disks, I/O, or 
  network capacity. 
  
  The limit to the amount of possible vertical scalability is the architectural hardware constraints 
  of the system. For example, if the system supports only 24 GB of memory, that memory 
  limitation can be overcome only by buying a larger system. 
  
  **Using a larger system**
  You can scale a Content Manager OnDemand system vertically by using a larger system in 
  one of two ways: 
  
  (cid:2) Installing a larger system within the same family and architecture, for example, moving 
  from an entry-level AIX system to an enterprise-level AIX system 
  
  (cid:2) Installing a larger system from a different architecture and family, for example, moving a 
  Content Manager OnDemand server from a Windows system to an AIX system
