The size of the second hard disk that will serve as data store, is configurable during ovf deployment.
The size of this hard disk depends on the number of flows per second received form the flow exporting devices and the number of days you want session details to remain available.
Use this table for guidance.
Flow per second | Retention | Hard Disk 2 Size |
---|---|---|
5k | 7 d | 200 GB |
20k | 7 d | 800 GB |
50k | 7 d | 2 TB |
5k | 14 d | 400 GB |
20k | 14 d | 1600 GB |

The size of the second hard disk that will serve as data store, is configurable during ovf deployment.
The size of this hard disk depends on the expected traffic volume.
Please note that at full line rate of 1Gb/s, a 100GB hard disk will retain full sized packets for less than 15 minutes !
