Command

Description

Open Preferences

Select Open Preferences to access the page where you can configure global settings for Peer Management Center, as well as settings for individual job types.

Assign Tags

Select Assign Tags to view, tag, and assign resources to categories.  This feature proves especially useful when managing a large number of resources.

Event Detection Analytics

Select the Analyze PMC Event Logs submenu to immediately trigger event detection analytics.  While PeerGFS typically performs event detection analysis nightly, using this option ensures you receive the most up-to-date analytics.

The output comprises a series of CSV and XLSX files, with the XLSX files being particularly significant.  Among these files, one provides comprehensive statistics regarding PeerGFS's performance, while the other offers insights into the most active files, folders, and extensions for content replicated by PeerGFS.  The output files are saved in the following location: <PMC Install Dir>\Hub\workspace\analytics\eda.

Compress DB on Restart

Select this option to compress the database when restarting Peer Management Center Service.  This action is recommended when the database consumes a significant amount of disk space.
