When using the Linux KM ‘Exclude filesystem’ feature on machine with 1000’s of filesystems (like Docker) the filtering might not work as expected. As a result of that the Linux KM will create 1000’s of Filesystem monitoring instances and it will probably hang the PATROL agent or even break the connection between TSIM to PATROL agent, that will require restart of TSIM/TSPS. |
1. Add the followings 2 pconfig variables:
2. Set explicitly the pconfig variable /AgentSetup/NUK_FileSystem.filterList with the regex(s) of all filesystems you would like to exclude from being monitoring.
You would set it as follows: Note: The recommendation is to do all the above 3 steps in the same Monitoring Policy to be applied at the same time. Also, with PATROL for Linux KM 20.05 there is a option to by default exclude container related filesystem. |
