🟨 There are performance limitations when running Diskover using an OVA, as it will start to get sluggish at around **200 million files**.

### Size the Instance

Before you begin, ensure there are sufficient memory and disk resources for the OVA:

- Memory 32GB RAM
- Disk:
- Media & Entertainment workflows: 256GB fast disk/SSD

πŸ”΄ To Expand the root partition and filesystem:
```
sudo -s
yum install cloud-utils-growpart-0.27-10.el7.x86_64
```

πŸ”΄ To grow the sda3 partition:
```
growpart /dev/sda 3
```

πŸ”΄ To grow the root filesystem:
```
xfs_growfs -d /
```

## OVA Installation

This section contains instructions to quickly get up and running with Diskover using an OVA (Open Virtual Appliance) on **VMWare Workstation** and **VirtualBox**. These OVAs can easily be imported into either of these hypervisors and booted up to run Diskover. This guide provides light instructions on how to import the OVA properly and get it booted up.
