File System Analytics (FSA) result sets overview

InsightIQ generates all File System reports from File System Analytics (FSA) result sets.

If File System Analytics (FSA) is enabled for a monitored cluster, InsightIQ generates File System reports from FSA result sets. Each File System report is generated from a single FSA result set.

Unlike InsightIQ data sets, which are stored in the InsightIQ data store, result sets are stored on the monitored cluster in the /ifs/.ifsvar/modules/fsa directory. The monitored cluster routinely deletes result sets to save storage capacity. You can manage result sets by specifying the maximum number of result sets that are retained.

You can configure whether File System reports are visible on the InsightIQ web application and whether new File System reports are generated on the monitored cluster. You can view any existing File System reports, even when the cluster does not generate new reports.

Disabling the FSA job does not affect any of the existing result sets. Result set expiration occurs based on the maximum number of result sets configured. If a result set is marked to be saved, or pinned, it is not deleted. By default, the monitored cluster generates one result set per day.

File System Analytics result set attributes

The Manage FSA Result Sets section on the Manage FSA Result Sets tab of the Configuration view displays information about all retained File System Analytics result sets.

The following list describes each column in the Manage FSA Result Sets table.

ID
Displays the unique identifier for the result set, as assigned by the monitored cluster.
Start Time
Displays the date and time at which the data-collection process started.
End Time
Displays the date and time at which the data-collection process ended.
Status
Indicates the status of the result set or, if running, the data-collection job.
Size

Pinned
