Environment
- CB Response Server: All versions
Question
What path should be excluded from Anti-virus (AV) applications running on CB Response Servers?
Answer
Exclude the data directories on CB Response servers (master and minions). To confirm the directory run this command in terminal
grep DatastoreRootDir /etc/cb/cb.conf
Default directory:
/var/cb/data
Additional Notes
- Make sure to use the directory set in cb.conf. At cbinit the data directory might have been changed
- Exclusions are necessary to avoid degradation in performance
- Exclusions also avoid corruption of the Postgres and Solr databases
- If performance degradation is seen in the environment, disabling the AV application should be the first attempt in troubleshooting
