Interpreting snPreInstall
Output 1
After you enter all requested information, the pre-installation script
outputs the following results:
• Estimated disk space required for each support directory.
• Recommended file system location for each support directory.
There are three types of directory recommendations, as indicated by the
text preceding the recommendation. The three types of recommendations
are described in
Table 5.
Tech Tip: For optimal performance, each support directory
(other than the
Backup directory) should be located on
its own local file system, and each local file system
should reside on a separate physical hard disk in the
MDC.
