I'm using Ontap C-Mode 9.8 and have a file share estate exposed as CIFS. It has over 89 million files. I'd like to enable file system analytics against it as per ONTAP File System Analytics: Better visibility for better storage management | NetApp Blog. I have some question though on scaling this:
- Can FSA handle this number of files?
- Where is the indexed data stored and do i have to be mindful of size?
- Can I monitor the FSA scan perfomance?
Also, can I consume this indexed data fomr other tools (PowerBI for exmaple) using the API?
