-Transaction Database is on each client’s machine.

-Managed File System Database is on each client’s machine. To calculate the size of this database, see “Size Managed File System Database” on page 1-20 .

-BFS Database is on BFS. To calculate the size of this Database, see “Size BFS Database” on page 1-18 .

•DataMgr-speciﬁc directories on AMASS:

-Bitﬁles are located under /archive/FMSclients/clientmachinename.

During the installation process, DataMgr creates and writes to the directories listed in the table below. If you do not use the default directories, DataMgr creates the directory names that you enter in the script and the appropriate symbolic links.

Note

Make sure that enough disk space is available for these directories. For space requirements, see “Disk Space” on page 1-13.
