Policy Tuning and Troubleshooting
•Agent update (with CTA) (downstream): 16666.67 Kb/sec, during update timeframe
As an example of how you could compute network load using the data points provided here, take 100,000 agents, each generating an average of 3 events per day, and multiply Event update size, by number of Event updates, by number of agents, per a time frame of your choosing and average out a network load.
Factors in Database Sizing
You can use the following data points for computing database sizing. The following numbers average table size based on the upper limit of a 100,000 agent deployment.
•Event table size: 11707.02 Mb
•Formatted event table: 13658.20 Mb
•Other tables: 20000 Mb
•Total database size; 45365.23 Mb
Policy Tuning and Troubleshooting
Once you have started your CSA pilot, you need to tune the policies to suit your needs and troubleshoot any problems that occur.
Overall Guidelines
This section presents some overall guidelines for tuning and troubleshooting your CSA pilot. Please read through this section carefully and consider the specific needs and requirements of your pilot before moving on to actually using the techniques. Here are the most important guidelines to follow when tuning and troubleshooting policies:
•Never directly modify one of the supplied groups, policies, or rule modules. If you need to change a group, policy, or rule module, make sure you clone and rename it first so you preserve it for use later. Modifying the supplied groups, policies, and rule modules directly makes it difficult to back out of any inadvertent mistakes.
