{{< note >}}RDI uses [K3s](https://k3s.io/) as part of its implementation.
182+
By default, the installer installs K3s in the `/var/lib` directory,
183+
but this might be a problem if you have limited space in `/var`
184+
or your company policy forbids you to install there. You can
185+
select a different directory for the K3s installation using the
186+
`--installation-dir` option with `install.sh` (or

[`redis-di install`]({{< relref "/integrate/redis-data-integration/reference/cli/redis-di-install" >}})):
