AI Model file download requirements
1E Catalog 2.0 supports downloading AI Model files for the AI auto-curation feature, which is used in other applications such as AppClarity and Application Migration via the SLA component in Tachyon.
In order to use the AI Powered Auto-curation feature you will need to have:
- Tachyon 5.0 or later installed. Please refer to Tachyon 5.0 - Installing and upgrading for more details on installing Tachyon 5.0.
- 5GB of available disk space on the computer hosting 1E Catalog for the initial download of the AI model files.
- Around 5GB of additional available disk space on the computer hosting 1E Catalog for each subsequent update for the AI model files. The AI model files may vary in size in future updates. Currently, the previous version of the AI model files will not be deleted when the newer version is downloaded. You can safely remove the previously downloaded older versions by hand when newer versions become available to free up disk space.
- The AI Powered Auto-curation feature also has some extra memory requirements. Please refer to Tachyon 5.0 - AI Powered Auto-curation: Increase in memory requirements for SLA for more details.
The files will be downloaded to the following directory:
C:\ProgramData\1E\Catalog\CatalogSynchronization\PredictionModel

Constraints of Legacy OS
In this documentation, the following are referred to as legacy OS. 1E does not provide support for 1E products on the following OS unless the OS is explicitly listed as being supported for a specific 1E product or product feature. This is because Microsoft has ended mainstream support for these OS or they are not significantly used by business organizations.

Please contact 1E if you require support for these legacy OS. If you experience an issue on these OS, then please try replicating the issue on a supported OS.
