XSOAR Engine Storage Requirements

DP696 — Mon, 01 Aug 2022 10:07:04 GMT

Hi,

As per the below link its mentioned minimum storage requirement for XSOAR engine is 100 GB. And for drive partition it is recommended to allocate 50 GB for /var and 50 GB for /home is XSOAR engine is getting installed on RHEL 8.x. In this case other partitions like /tmp, /usr, /etc doesn't require any space?

Your OS is going to need to store things in those directories, so even if *XSOAR* doesn't require any space, your OS will.

Some stuff will definitely get written to /etc (eg, systemd service configuration files), but the size is so small that in practice you can basically ignore it.

If you need advice about sizing for other directories, I'd suggest checking the RHEL documentation to see what they recommend.
