MultiScan

MultiScan

  • The MultiScan job, which combines the functionality of AutoBalance and Collect, automatically runs after a group change that adds a device to the cluster. AutoBalance(Lin) and/or Collect only run manually if MultiScan has been disabled.

     

    Note: Scalability enhancements in OneFS 8.2 and later mean that fewer group change notifications are received, which results in MultiScan being triggered less frequently. To compensate, MultiScan is now started when:

    • Data is unbalanced within one or more disk pools, which triggers MultiScan to start the AutoBalance phase only.
    • Drives have been unavailable for long enough to warrant a Collect job, which triggers MultiScan to start both its AutoBalance and Collect phases.
