Processing Large Containers
This article details considerations for ingesting large image and archive containers in the Reveal environment
Temp Space for Image Expansion
Temp space is required for decompressing and mounting forensic images and large archive containers. In Reveal 11 the temp locations for the processing agents have 1.7 TB free.
If a forensic image/archive expands such that its size is larger than the allocated temp space, the import will fail.
Recommendations:
- Understand the data’s uncompressed size using a forensic or archiving tool.
- Use the source software to make a very large image or container into multiple smaller-sized images. We recommend 500GB or less, with 1TB being the upper limit of decompressed content. Overly large imports will take longer to process before review can begin, are more likely to introduce errors, and are generally not good practice.
- If in doubt, contact Reveal Support for advice about ingestion.
