Scanner limitations
The following notes cover limitations pertaining to the Scanner process of Data Insight:
In case of Windows 2012 Severs used as Windows File Servers, the Scanner does fetch a group having permission based on a condition. For example, "all users who have xyz as manager have full access to the share/folder". However, the indexer discards it currently. The console does not display the group as having Dynamic ACL. The other permissions on the path are shown properly.
Resilient File System (ReFS) is supported only for scanning. Auditing is not supported since the drive cannot be attached to the filter driver.
Scanner does not support share names of more than 200 characters.
Scanner modifies the access time of directories while traversing the filesystem.
Parallel scanner limitations
The following notes cover limitations pertaining to the parallel scanner process of Data Insight:
Parallel scanner does not support incremental scan. Only full scans are supported.
Parallel scanner cannot be run for the NFS shares.
Parallel scanner does not support filtering out shares based on the Exclude Rules configuration.
For Windows File Server agents version older than 5.2, the parallel scanner cannot be executed. Even if it is configured, the single thread scan runs.
Support for scanning of circular or cyclic symbolic links is not available.
Support for scanning junction-based paths is not available.
