Description:
In version 1.2.1 of NetVault: SmartDisk, an improvement was made to allow the configuration of more than one Deduplication and Garbage Collection (GC) window, allowing greater flexibility in the schedules that can be configured.
Symptoms:
One schedule is considered a time period during one day. Prior to 1.2.1, only one schedule could be created, i.e. one time period during one day of the week, or Never or Always on.
This example shows how to set GC every day 18:00 to 23:00 on Windows:
Confirm the current configuration:
C:\> smartdisk.bat config show
Look for:
[Deduplication:GC]
Window = 12:00, 15:00, Sun
etc
If there are already window/s set, then clear them all:
C:\> smartdisk.bat config --gc-window Never
Or clear them individually:
C:\> smartdisk.bat config --delete --gc-window Sun 12:00-15:00
Each day is considered a separate window, so a separate command is required to add all days individually:
C:\> smartdisk.bat config --add --gc-window Sun 18:00-23:00
C:\> smartdisk.bat config --add --gc-window Mon 18:00-23:00
etc.
Confirm the setting by showing the config again:
C:\> smartdisk.bat config show
Look for:
[Deduplication:GC]
Window = 18:00, 23:00, Sun
Window = 18:00, 23:00, Mon
etc.
Similarly, multiple Deduplication schedules can be added:
C:\> smartdisk.bat config --add --dedupe-window Sun 12:00-13:00
C:\> smartdisk.bat config --add --dedupe-window Mon 12:00-13:00
etc.
Confirm the setting by showing the config again:
C:\> smartdisk.bat config show
Look for:
[Deduplication:Schedule]
Window = 12:00, 13:00, Sun
Window = 12:00, 13:00, Mon
Etc.
