Question
What DFS Path Mapping settings are available?
Answer
The following
Agent Config settings are available:
| Config | Default Value | Type | Description |
|---|
| query_ad_dfs_namespaces | query_ad_dfs_namespaces=false | Boolean |
Controls whether the Agent will query the user's domain for any DFS namespaces. Must be true for Agents to get DFS info from the Domain Controller.
Note: Only the user's direct domain is queried, no other domains are checked.
|
| dfs_namespaces | dfs_namespaces="" | String | Used when there are stand-alone DFS Servers not part of an Active Directory. These DFS Servers are queried for each user. |
| dfs_refresh_interval_seconds | dfs_refresh_interval_seconds=14400 | Integer | Determines how long each Agent will re-query the network. By default, 4 hours. |
|
dfs_purge_age_days
Agent 9.0.0+
| dfs_purge_age_days=120 | Integer | Age of items to be purged from the database. By default, 4 months. |
Additional Notes
- DFS Path Mapping collects referral server paths for DFS folders.
- When an Agent is referencing a file from one of the referral paths, the path is passed through rules as the original DFS Path.
- Custom Rules can be written based on DFS Paths without having to track all the possible backing servers.
