Hi
I read a post saying "**Using wildcard monitor statements over deep file systems has a significant performance impact, so if this can be avoided it would be of benefit**."
I'd like to better understand what that exactly means? What kind of "performance impact" it is, cpu, memory, disk, IO?
We have a UF 6.5 running on a Linux box, monitor a folder with about 460 files. The folder has 8 levels sub-folders, then come log files. Is this a DEEP file systems?
**When I put the wildcard at the second level of sub-folder, monitor this whole folder tree in one stanza, it shows huge memory consumption percentage, and the log server closes to freezing.
When I specify every individual log file in its own stanza without using wildcard, everything works well without any performance issue.
The issue is, the second level of sub-folder names are dynamic, we have to use an ad-hoc script to manually build configuration file for all directories/files every day. We'd really like a better solution to avoid this daily manual intervention.**
Which makes me doubt, when UF monitors one big folder tree, does it process them all in one thread?
Any other explanation for this, and any solution?
Thanks...
