Switching off NetApp device identification checks by the PST Locator task
When the PST Locator task finds a computer, it attempts to determine if the computer is a NetApp device. Performing this check can slow down the search for computers. This section describes how to switch off the automatic identification of NetApp devices by the PST Locator task during the search for computers. Later you can identify NetApp devices manually by editing the computer properties in the Administration Console.
To switch off the automatic identification of NetApp devices you configure a setting in the file PSTlocatorTask.exe.config
. This file and an example version of it are located in the Enterprise Vault program folder (for example C:\Program Files (x86)\Enterprise Vault
). The example file contains examples of the settings that can be configured in PstLocatorTask.exe.config
.
To switch off the automatic identification of NetApp devices
- On the Enterprise Vault server that runs the PST Locator task, start Windows Explorer and navigate to the Enterprise Vault program folder (for example
C:\Program Files (x86)\Enterprise Vault
). - Copy the file,
PstLocatorTask.exe.config
, to a safe location. - If
PSTlocatorTask.exe.config
is the stub version of the file, then replace this file by copying and renaming the example file,Example PstLocatorTask.exe.config
. - Open the
PstLocatorTask.exe.config
file in a text editor such as Windows Notepad. - Search for the following text:
<PSTSettings>
- Do one of the following:
If you have created the file by copying and renaming the example version, then the following lines exist in the entries under <PSTSettings>:
<!--Determine whether computer is a NetApp Filer: Default: true--> <add key="LocateNetAppFilers" value = "true"/>
Change the setting value to "false".
If you created the file on a previous release, then add the following lines under <PSTSettings>:
<!--Determine whether computer is a NetApp Filer: Default: true--> <add key="LocateNetAppFilers" value = "false"/>
- Save and close the file.
- In the Administration Console, restart the PST Locator task.
