The only criteria should be the availability of the CPU and Memory. As along as the CPU and Memory are available we can submit as many jobs as possible.

To know that we have certain tools which should help you to know the CPU and Memory available on your server.

Re: migrating from windows to linux

As kumar said there should be any problem as such.

If the input data file are also moved from windows to linux then, be aware that the new like character will be replaced by some special character. Make sure to delete the special symbols before further processing.
