Prerequisites
For LDT over CIFS/NFS to work properly, see Installation Prerequisites of the CipherTrust Quick Start Guide.
Space Required
The space requirements for share drives is the same as the requirements for local file systems. However, you must plan for additional space for metadata. Refer to Planning for LDT Attribute Storage for calculating space.
Network and Port requirements
-
Ports 7024 and 7025 must be open on all triad nodes.
-
Port 7024 is used for master-replica communication.
-
Port 7025 is used for communication group monitor process.
-
For optimized performance, put the triad nodes on the same subnet. Locate them close to each other with a low-latency network connections. High round-trip time (RTT), or unstable networks, can cause unnecessary master failovers and impact LDT GuardPoint Group health.
