Appendix 2: Memory Usage 
A Thin Client contains the following internal memory: a flash card and main memory. 
A. Flash Memory 
The following is saved to the flash card:  
•  software packages (firmware). Rights: read only. 
•  application files. Rights: read/write. 
Different suppliers offer different flash sizes, such as 32 MB, 128 MB, etc. Contact your supplier for a 
list of available flash sizes. 
Each local application or session client requires software saved to the flash card. The size of these 
packages is displayed in ELIAS NG when the image files are created.
 
The flash card size for your 
requirements depends on the total number of programs to be run on the Thin Client (local browser, 
ICA, SAP, RDP, emulation, etc.).
 
In addition, the directory /setup on the flash card is reserved for application files, such as ICA 
configuration files, browser history file, etc. This directory is not deleted upon system shutdown. 
B. Main Memory 
Each Thin Client contains main memory. The directory /tmp in the main memory is reserved for 
temporary system files or applications.  
If you have 64 MB or less of main memory, 4 MB of main memory is reserved for the directory /tmp. If 
your main memory is greater than 64 MB, the size of /tmp is a minimum 8 MB and can be increased 
by the user. 
The files in the directory /tmp are deleted upon system shutdown. 
C. Warning Messages 
When disk usage exceeds 95% (either in /setup or /tmp), eLux NG displays a warning message: 
Figure 112: Low memory warnings 
Note which directory is affected! Files in /tmp can be deleted by restarting the device. Files in /setup 
must be removed by hand. 
 
Tips: 
•  ICA clients save cache files to the temporary directory. Solution: In advanced ICA settings, set the 
ICA cache (Tools > Settings > Disk Cache > “Amount of disk space to use”) to zero. See section 
4.2.4 Citrix ICA Client for Linux – Advanced Citrix ICA Settings” for information on accessing the 
advanced ICA settings. 
•  During a local browser session, cache files are saved to the temporary directory, which can fill up 
quickly. Solution: Set the browser home directory to a network drive. See section “3.10 Browser 
Home Directory
