Description
In order to ensure Tanium has sufficient storage capacity in which to write the audit logs, the SQL Server RDMBS must be configured with sufficient free space. Consult the server sizing documents located at https://docs.tanium.com/platform_install/platform_install/reference_host_system_sizing_guidelines.html to determine how much free space should be allocated.

Access the Tanium SQL Server interactively. Log on to their server with an account that has administrative privileges. Consult server sizing documentation at https://docs.tanium.com/platform_install/platform_install/reference_host_system_sizing_guidelines.html and the Tanium system administrator to determine the recommended disk space sizing for the size of the Tanium deployment. Launch File Explorer. Check the total disk space allocated to the hard drive allocated for the Tanium SQL databases. Compare the allocated size against the recommended disk space sizing for the size of the Tanium deployment. If the allocated size is less than the recommended disk space, this is a finding.
