Data Drive Preparation

You should have an additional data drive attached to your system and mounted to /data/vector. If you are preparing a cloud-based HyperCollector (AWS, Azure) public cloud based encryption is assumed and to prep this data drive execute the following command (zipped). This will auto create and mount the data volume for local caching under /data/vector.
