    We do not recommend you use Data Node software for PCAP storage.

    What do you recommend that we use for off appliance PCAP storage? 

     

    Thanks,

    Daniel, 

    If you are using QRadar Incident Forensics,  The Network PCAP appliances are meant to be chained when more storage is needed. If I can find a generally supported way to store the data outside of the appliance/software, I will post it here.

    HA isn't available for QRIF and PCAP but you can create a deployment that allows for parallel deployments which can be switched manually.  Since forensics isn't real-time this has been an acceptable approach for many customers who do want HA for everything including forensics and PCAP.  

    If you have questions or need more information on how to do this, let me know what specific questions you need answered?

    Today there isn't a supported way to store data outside of Network PCAP.  A client can stack up to 16 Network PCAP appliances behind a single tap to extend storage.  The problem with external storage is the ability to guarantee that the writes will keep up with the speed of the network much less being able to manage the indexes and ultimately retrieve the data.
     
    External storage sounds great until it doesn't work and if our customers don't have the data they need when the really need it, well you can follow from there. 

    This is why we focus on scaling through Network PCAP which ensure IBM QIF can keep up with the network while have the data available when it is needed.
