Hard disk mount point recommendations
Following are the recommended mount points and sizes for a 100-GB drive for the DNCA software.

| / | 4 GB |
| /archive | 42 GB (Remaining disk) |
| /tmp | 4 GB |
| /usr | 40 GB |
| /var | 8 GB |

The /archive partition is used for storing raw packet archives, if enabled. By default, the feature is off and must be used for troubleshooting problems only.
The /usr partition contains the DNCA software. The Discover DNCA software RPM installs files into /usr/local.
