Job Results Directory Size Recommendation for Nutanix Files

The job results directory size for Nutanix Files depends on the CvScanDB size and the dirchange size.

CvScanDB Size Requirement Formula

Fixed Record Size 373 bytes + Variables (File Name + Others) 259 bytes = 632 bytes

Average record size is 600 bytes and the index for each record is 100 bytes.

Each record average size = 600 bytes + 100 bytes = 700 bytes.

For 100 million files of one instance of CvScanDB, 70 GB space is required. There can be three instances of CvScanDB during the job duration.

So the recommended average size for CvScanDB for 100 million files in the Job Results directory is 70 x 3 = 210 GB.

Dirchange Size Requirement Formula

The following formula assumes that each folder is repeated only once in dirchange.

Dirchange Line Size

File Name 150 bytes + Tags 60 to 80 bytes = 230 bytes

For 100 million files, average dirchange space of 21 GB is required. There can be 3 dirchanges (full, incremental, and current) during the job duration.

So the recommended average size for dirchange for 100 million files in the Job Result directory is 21 x 3 = 63 GB.

The total recommended average size for 100 million files in the job results directory is 210 GB + 63 GB = approximately 273 GB.
