Hardware requirements for Journal Commander modules
Journal Commander modules are supported on servers where the software vendor’s own minimum requirements are met (for example, Veritas Enterprise Vault / Microsoft Exchange).
Additionally, most export/import modules require a buffer or cache area for temporary storage of exported files. This is called the Staging Area. The minimum recommended size for the Staging Area is 100 GB, and should be on fast, direct attached disk for maximum performance.
Note: The size of the Staging Area does not need to match the source data size.
