Description |
|---|---|
DFS Roots Folder |
The default folder for namespace roots is C:\DFSRoots\. If you want a different folder to be used, enter the local path to the folder. |
Timeout |
Enter the number of seconds to wait for a response from any Agent. The default value is 120 seconds. |
Namespace Checking Period |
Enter the number of seconds to delay between checking namespace information calls. This check catches any changes made to a namespace using the Microsoft DFS Management tool. Selecting a low value will negatively affect performance but will reflect changes to the user interface more quickly. The default value is 120 seconds. |
Event Timeout |
Enter the number of seconds to wait before marking an event containing DFS namespace information from the Agent as timed out. The default value is 120 seconds. |
Namespace Checking Retries |
Enter the maximum number of times for checking namespace information if the namespace is not found. Once the maximum number is exceeded, the job is stopped. The default value is 5 retries. |
Namespace Search Timeout |
When a user tries to import a namespace, PeerGFS searches for the namespace. This may take some time, depending on the environment. Enter the number of minutes to wait before timing out. The default value is 10 minutes. |
