The standard VM-50, while the smallest model of the
VM-Series, requires more resources than are available in some environments.
The VM-50 Lite mode provides an alternative for environments where
hardware resources are constrained. The VM-50 Lite requires 4.5GB
of memory instead of the 5.5GB required by the standard VM-50. The
VM-50 Lite uses the same license as the standard VM-50 but comes
up in Lite mode when allocated 4.5GB of RAM.
