Optimizing datastores

Plixer Scrutinizer environments with larger flow rates can be significantly impacted by insufficient disk I/O throughput. For optimal performance, Plixer Scrutinizer virtual appliances should be deployed on a dedicated 15K RPM RAID 10 datastore with the recommended capacity.

In environments with extremely high flow volumes, it is recommended to use the Plixer Scrutinizer hardware appliance for its dedicated resources and higher collection rates.
