The options are divided into two groups:
•Dell PowerScale Options for this job
•Dell PowerScale Advanced Settings
The following configuration options are available for Dell PowerScale devices:
Option |
Description |
---|---|
Filter open/close events from these users |
Enter a comma-separated list of user names to exclude from access event detection. For example, if "USER1" is excluded, any access event activity generated by USER1 will be ignored, e.g., file is opened and closed. |
Filter all events from these users |
Enter a comma-separated list of user names to exclude from all event detection. For example, if "USER"1 is excluded, any activity generated by USER1 will be ignored, e.g., file is open and modified. |
Filter events from these IP Addresses |
Enter a comma-separated list of IP addresses to exclude from all event detection. For example, if "192.168.0.100" is excluded, any activity generated by 192.168.0.100 will be ignored, e.g., file is open and modified. |
Access Event Suppression Time |
Enter a value that represents the number of seconds that an open event will be delayed before being processed. Used to help reduce the amount of chatter generated by Windows clients when mousing over files in Windows Explorer. The default value is -1, which will be adjusted based on the selected NAS platform. A value of 0 will allow for dynamic changes to the amount of time that an open event will be delayed based on the load of the system. |
