Configuring the Breakup Jobs option for master servers

You can configure the Breakup Jobs option for master servers from the scl.conf file. You can configure the scl.conf file to enable the Breakup Jobs option for 7.1 master servers (disabled by default). Note that enabling or disabling the Breakup Jobs option using scl.conf applies to 7.1 master servers only.

Note:

Enabling the Breakup Jobs option increases the load on the master server and the time it takes to gather and load data in OpsCenter.

You can also configure the jobs for which you want to collect breakup job information. The job selection is based on the maximum number of files that a job backs up. By default, breakup job information is not collected for jobs whose file count is greater than 1000000. This applies to all master server versions.

To enable the Breakup Jobs option for 7.1 master servers

  1. Log on to the OpsCenter Server host. Stop all OpsCenter Server services on Windows and UNIX:

    Windows

    INSTALL_PATH\OpsCenter\server\bin\opsadmin.bat stop

    UNIX

    /opt/SYMCOpsCenterServer/bin/opsadmin.sh stop

  2. Open scl.conf file from the following directory on Windows and UNIX:

    Windows

    INSTALL_PATH\OpsCenter\Server\config\scl.conf

    UNIX

    /opt/SYMCOpsCenterServer/config

  3. The Breakup Jobs option is disabled by default. To enable the Breakup Jobs option for 7.1 master servers, add the following text to scl.conf file:

    nbu.scl.collector.enableBreakupJobDataCollection=true

    Note:

    To disable the Breakup Jobs option for 7.1 master servers, add the following text to scl.conf file:

    #nbu.scl.collector.enableBreakupJobDataCollection=false

  4. Save scl.conf file.

  5. Restart all OpsCenter Server services on Windows and UNIX:

    Windows

    INSTALL_PATH\OpsCenter\server\bin\opsadmin.bat start

    UNIX

    /opt/SYMCOpsCenterServer/bin/opsadmin.sh start

To specify the maximum file size of jobs for Breakup Job data collection

  1. Go to theOpsCenter Server host. Stop all OpsCenter Server services on Windows and UNIX:

    Windows

    INSTALL_PATH\OpsCenter\server\bin\opsadmin.bat stop

    UNIX

    /opt/SYMCOpsCenterServer/bin/opsadmin.sh stop

  2. Open scl.conf file from the following directory on Windows and UNIX:

    Windows

    INSTALL_PATH\OpsCenter\Server\config\scl.conf

    UNIX

    /opt/SYMCOpsCenterServer/config

  3. By default, breakup job information is not collected for jobs that back up more than 1000000 files. However, you can configure the jobs for which you want to collect breakup job information based on maximum number of files that a job backs up. This applies to all master server versions.

    For example, if you do not want to collect breakup job information for jobs that back up more than 20,000 files, add the following text to the scl.conf file:

    nbu.scl.collector.breakupJobMaxFileCountPerJob=20000

    Once you complete this procedure, breakup job information is not collected for jobs whose file count is greater than 20000. This applies to all master servers.

  4. Save scl.conf file.

  5. Restart all OpsCenter Server services on Windows and UNIX:

    Windows

    INSTALL_PATH\OpsCenter\server\bin\opsadmin.bat start

    UNIX

    /opt/SYMCOpsCenterServer/bin/opsadmin.sh start
