LDAD data primarily reside on the internal-side data disks. The
LDAD Server (LS) is used only for temporarily storing acquired data
and for storage of dissemination datasets. The latter are a small
subset of the data in the DSs. In particular, only data to be
disseminated are ever pushed from the DS to the LS systems.
LDAD executables are stored on both the external and internal
servers.
The LDAD Server LS1 has two 4GB storage disks. The disks are
partitioned as follows:
