Speeding up analytics data collection in low-bandwidth environments

When there are low-bandwidth connections (1GB or lower) between Discovery Accelerator and Enterprise Vault, and between Discovery Accelerator and SQL Server, the collection of analytics data can be slow due to high memory usage and service restarts. If you know these connections to be slow, or if you experience these symptoms, you can take the following steps to speed up data collection.

To speed up analytics data collection in low-bandwidth environments

  1. Pause the collection of analytics data.

  2. Locate the AnalyticsIngesterTask.exe.config file in the Discovery Accelerator program folder.

  3. Open the file in a text editor such as Windows Notepad.

  4. Make the following configuration changes:

    <add key="numECMThreads" value="1" />
<add key="maxThreadsPerVaultServer" value="1" />
<add key="numDBThreads" value="2" />

  5. Save and close the file.

  6. Resume the collection of analytics data.
