Performance tuning of Data Loss Prevention (DLP) controller server

In environments with large agent population, increasing the number of Task Executor threads may improve the performance of the controller. To tune the performance:

1. Open the ../home/dgate/prod/common/cfg/systemConf.properties file and add the following parameter:

   context.task.executor.threads=X

   The default value of X is 16, where X is the number of threads. You can increase the value up to a maximum of 256.

    

   When increasing the Task Executor threads, note that allocating additional threads consumes more memory and may cause the operating system to swap.
2. Save the file.
3. Restart the dgate-dscctrl service by typing the following command:

   sudo service dgate-dscctrl restart
