Description
Sets the transfer priority between protected machines. Enables you to assign
priority by comparison with other protected machines. Select a number from 1
to 10, with 1 being the highest priority. The default setting establishes a priority
of 5.
NOTE: Priority is applied to transfers that are in the queue.
Sets the maximum number of TCP links that are sent to the Core to be
processed in parallel per agent.
NOTE: Dell recommends setting this value to 8. If you experience
dropped packets, try increasing this setting.
Sets the maximum number of simultaneous disk write actions per agent
connection.
NOTE: Dell recommends setting this value to the same value that you
select for Maximum Concurrent Streams. If you experience packet loss,
set this value slightly lower. For example, if Maximum Current Streams is
set at 8, set this option to 7.
Sets the maximum number of retries for each protected machine, if some of
the operations fail to complete.
Specifies the largest amount of data, in bytes, that a computer can receive in a
single TCP segment. The default setting is 4194304.
CAUTION: Do not change this option from the default setting.
Specifies the number of commands that can be sent concurrently. You can
adjust this option to a higher number if your system as a high number of
concurrent input/output operations.
Specifies how many queued read operations will be stored on the back end.
This setting helps to control the queuing of agents.
NOTE: Dell recommends setting this value to 24.
