Antyhing specifically mentioned in Splunk docs? (I have tried to find but did not see anything)</P><P>Consider following scenarios:<BR />1) 2 onprem Indexers with dedicated storage, rf is 2. Each indexer has 5 TB of data. So combined would be 10 TB<BR />2)&nbsp;4 indexers - 2 sites, 2 on each site. Each site will maintain 1 copy of bucket. Again combined storage would be 10 TB</P><P>When migrating to SmartStore, what would be the expected storage utilization?</P> Wed, 17 Jul 2024 05:18:25 GMT https://community.splunk.com/t5/Splunk-Enterprise/Smartstore-storage-requirement-for-rf-sf-as-2/m-p/693567#M19786 payl_chdhry 2024-07-17T05:18:25Z https://community.splunk.com/t5/Splunk-Enterprise/Smartstore-storage-requirement-for-rf-sf-as-2/m-p/693606#M19789 <P>RF/SF does not apply to SmartStore so the storage usage would be 5TB.&nbsp; Of the 5TB. the hot buckets would be on the indexers (and replicated) and the rest would be in S2.</P> Wed, 17 Jul 2024 12:29:15 GMT https://community.splunk.com/t5/Splunk-Enterprise/Smartstore-storage-requirement-for-rf-sf-as-2/m-p/693606#M19789 richgalloway 2024-07-17T12:29:15Z
