Before you begin tuning

You should rarely need to tune any factory-default settings. If you determine that degraded system performance warrants an examination of certain configurations such as memory, take the following steps.

Note:

If you encounter any issues following these directions contact Cohesity Support for further guidance.

  1. Before modifying your configuration, make a copy of all files you plan to edit.

  2. Consider tuning to be a process--that is, increase/decrease a number slightly, then monitor system performance. If your modification results in improvement, you may consider additional adjustments later.

  3. Whenever you undertake this tuning process, consider the potential negative impact of settings that are either too high or too low, within the resource constraints of your environment.
