NTFS Discovery: Best Practices

This section outlines some best practices to ensure the NTFS discovery and reports are optimized.

Only enable Include hidden shares if this data is needed. Selecting this option will cause a great increase in discovery time because all files on a server will be accessed through system shares such as C$ (C:\ drive) which are all the files and folders on the server.
Only enable the option to collect All folder levels if it is required.
Set the Folder depth to limit the collection to only the levels of folder structure required.
Only enable the option to Collect files and their basic details like size and attributes if file information is required.
Only enable the option to Calculate differences between folders and subfolders if the File and Folder Permissions with Differences report is required.
Enterprise Reporter 3.0 (and later) has a performance option to break up tasks by share. Enable Create a task per share for each computer to allow multiple nodes/threads to collect one large file server.

NTFS Discovery: Include scopes

The scopes you add will determine the computers and specific folders that will be the targets of the discovery when it is run. You can explicitly add domains, OUs, containers, computers, folders, shares, DFS shares, or NAS devices. Domains, OUs and containers can contain many computers, which can significantly increase the time it takes to run the discovery. For more information, see Including Objects in Your Scope .

You can create scopes using a dynamic query, which is resolved when the discovery is run. This gives you the flexibility to describe the computers you want to target. For more information, see Using Queries to Define Your Scopes .

NTFS Discovery: Select your global scopes

Global scopes are folders that are collected from every computer in the scope. When you run the discovery, Enterprise Reporter uses the scopes you selected in the first two steps to resolve a list of computers that will be targeted. Anything you include or exclude globally is applied to these computers. Use global scopes to:

COMMONFILES

The location of the Common Files folder.
Usually C:\Program Files\Common Files

PROGRAMFILES

The location of the Program Files folder.
Usually C:\Program Files

SYSTEM

The location of the Windows System32 folder.
Usually C:\Windows\System32

SYSTEMDRIVE

The drive where the operating system is installed.
Usually C:\

WINDOWS

The location where Windows is installed.

Usually C:\Windows
