By default, Virtual Storage Console for VMware vSphere checks the optimization of NFS paths every five minutes. You can change the frequency of these checks by modifying the vscPreferences.xml file.
Steps
- In the etc/vsc/vscPreferences.xml file, add the following entry: <entry key="default.server.path.optimization.sleep" value="value_in_seconds"/>
value_in_seconds is the amount of time, specified in seconds, that you want VSC to wait before rechecking the optimization of the NFS paths.
- Verify that the optimization checks are occurring at the new interval by checking the entries in the log/vsc.log log file.
The log file contains statements similar to the following that enable you to determine how often the path checks are occurring:
2013-10-17 16:26:58,665 [Thread-16] DEBUG (PathOptimizationManager)
- Refreshing controllers and recalculating path optimization details...
2013-10-17 16:26:58,667 [Thread-16] DEBUG (PathOptimizationManager) -
Path optimization detection complete.
