Third-Party Software Time Synchronization • Because TT software is extremely sensitive to time changes, if you must manually change time settings, wait until the TT Gateways are down. Reboot the server after you re-synchronize clock settings. • Customers may choose to use NTP (Network Time Protocol) to synchronize computer clocks over a network. • TT recommends using an NTP service that is accurate within 1 second or less. Windows Time Service does not guarantee the level of accuracy that TT requires. • Establish an NTP Server with multiple NTP listeners (this will run continuously). • You must have at least three masters for a proper NTP session. This skews the clock and stabilizes drift. Virus Protection Software • TT recommends not enabling real-time virus scanning on the TT directory and its subdirectories. • Any virus scanning on the TT directory should be performed during non-trading hours. Hardware Performance Monitoring • TT recommends using third-party tools to monitor the performance of TT servers (e.g., processor and memory utilization). • Example tools include SolarWinds and Nagios.
Client-Class Machine Optimizations Client Systems Overview Before reviewing this information, ensure you are familiar with the “Client-Class Machine Requirements” on page 4. This document includes a list of TT products that require client-class machines. Note: Most recommendations and optimizations in this document will be across all client-class machines; however, exceptions will be noted for specific products.
