GSS Hardware Sizing and Provisioning Guidelines

In addition to the minimum system requirements indicated in the
Deployment and
information that can help you to plan hardware sizing needs, based on the exact deployment scenario that you are using.
Hard Drive Partition Recommendations
Following is the partition scheme required for GSS application:
Root partition (/) should be at least 15 gigabyte (GB).
The swap partitions (/tmp, /var/run) should be at least 3 GB.
/globaldevices should be at least 1 GB - This is applicable for Cluster mode only.
/opt should be at least 10 GB
/export/home should be the partition used for GSS and PostgreSQL.

Minimum System Requirements for Cluster Deployment
In Stand-alone mode this partition should have at least 20 GB free disk space to allow for longer-term
storage of the CDR files and other archived databases.
In case of Cluster mode installation PostgreSQL and CDR storage will be on /shareddisk for all cluster
node hence may not require 20 GB free disk space.
A typical CDR can be 200 Bytes in size. Based on this, the approximate file size with 4 Million CDRs
per hour and backup for 2 days, the formula used to calculate the amount of space needed to backup
this information is:
200 X (#_of_CDR_per_hour) X 48 X 1.5 = Backup space on Hard disk in Bytes.
