By default, Snoop-de-dupe is configured to handle most environments. You can configure Snoop-de-dupe based on your resource requirements. Resource limiting includes: worker thread priority, maximum CPU usage, and limiting write access to the hard disk |
|
|
Open the Server Console and select the Snoop-de-dupe tab |
|
|
Select the More link |
|
|
Select the Set Resource Usage link |
|
|
You can configure three resource groups |
|
|
- Worker Thread Priority – limit the priority of the worker thread which monitors duplicate files. A lower priority allows Snoop-de-dupe to yield processing power to other Server processes
- Limit Maximum CPU Usage – places a cap on the percentage of CPU usage available for use by Snoop-de-dupe. The limit is 1% – 100%. A smaller value allows Snoop-de-dupe to yield processing power to other Sever processes
- Hard Drive Access – force Snoope-de-dupe to pause a specific number of milliseconds after flushing data to the hard drive. A larger value allows Snoop-de-dupe to yield processing power to other Server processes

Note, all resource usage options are set in real-time. Hence, you can configure settings to higher priority during the evening and then reconfigure them back to lower priority settings during the work day without any need to reboot your server or re-start any processes |
