SQL Server Storage

SQL Server requires a minimum of 6 GB of available hard-disk space. Disk space requirements will vary with the SQL Server components you install.

Document Locator database storage requirements are 1.3 to 1.5 times your existing file storage. Add accordingly to plan for three- to five-year’s growth. In addition, plan for backup storage on a different drive capable to maintain at least four to five copies of your SQL Database.

Virtual Server Environments

The following virtualized environment is supported for Microsoft SQL Server. See the respective links below from the vendor.

Note: Running SQL Server on a virtual machine will be slower than running natively because of the overhead of virtualization.

Microsoft SQL Server High Availability

  • Active/Passive Clustering is supported
  • Log Shipping for Read Only database

Document Locator Server Component
