NOTE: The configuration files are only for reference. If the configuration files are changed, correct
operation cannot be guaranteed.
Table 144 (page 302) describes the required disk space for the configuration file. When you estimate
the disk capacity, also consider the need to create backup files, and secure space that is at least
twice the size of the required disk capacity.
