Can you change FSA scan speed or allocate more resources to it ?
Applies to
ONTAP 9
Answer
- There are no user configurable options for enabling FSA with respect to the back-end operations.
- The only speed related parameter is
-scan-throttle
,which limits the speed for building the analytics database on the file system. - This parameter sets the maximum rate for collecting analytics information from files.
- Larger values can initialize the analytics information faster but will increase system load and may impact the performance of protocol traffic.
- The range for the throttle value is between 1 to 5000.
- The default value is 5000.
