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.

  • 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.

  • Support for scanning of circular or cyclic symbolic links is not available.

  • Support for scanning junction-based paths is not available.
