To access the "Scan Settings" perform the following process steps:

Note:
In this example the system Local Host S3 (title outlined in blue) will be selected.

1. Click inside the Edit icon.

The display will expand downward to show the scan settings for the associated Storage System (title outlined in green).  In this example that is "Local Host S3 - Scan Settings".

Hover over the Discovery Scan Settings header to display the tooltip:
"Project level settings area applied to Discover Scans of all associated Storage Connections"

The Discovery Scan Settings include:

1. Concurrency (outlined in dark blue)
2. Report Formats (outlined in green)
3. Data Retention (outlined in purple)
4. Include Object Tags (outlined in brown)

The Concurrency field (outlined in blue) defines the maximum number of Buckets that this project can scan simultaneously.  The default value is 4.

The "Concurrency" value defines the number of Buckets that can be scanned at the same time.  This value is preset at four (4) and can be increased to eight (8).

Note:
If the concurrency value is set at 4 and the number of Buckets selected are more than four (4), the excess Buckets will be placed in a queue to be added one Bucket at a time as Buckets complete, until all Buckets are processed.

Example:

If the number of Buckets detected is 92, with 10 selected (see example below outlined in blue), the first 10 shares will be processed while the remaining 82 Buckets will be placed in a queue to be processed as a share completes.

Note:
Hovering over Concurrency slide bar will display the following tooltip.  "The maximum number of Buckets that this project can scan simultaneously. Set to 0 for no limit other than from licensing and hardware."

The reports can be saved in any of the following formats (outlined in blue):

• HTML
• CSV
• JSON
• XML

Data Retention defines the time frame that the data from the discovery scan will be kept.  The default time frame is 7-days.  

The  "Include Object Tags" project setting for S3 signal the inclusion of object tags in the object scan data. When the checkbox is activated (outlined in blue) the scan will include Object Tags in discovery data collection.  This will query for object tags in whichever way is applicable, whether from MinIO's bulk tags query, or individual queries at the object level.

The Discovery Scan feature identifies and provides a bucket count for Cloud systems.  There is a limit to the number of Buckets that can be scanned at the same time.

The "Concurrency" value defines the number of Buckets that can be scanned at the same time.  This value is preset at four (4) and can be increased to eight (8).

Note:
If the concurrency value is set at 4 and the number of Buckets selected are more than four (4), the excess Buckets will be placed in a queue to be added one Bucket at a time as Buckets complete, until all Buckets are processed.

Example:
If the number of Buckets detected is 92, with 10 selected (see example below outlined in blue), the first 10 shares will be processed while the remaining 82 Buckets will be placed in a queue to be processed as a share completes.

The reporting in Discovery supports the following formats (outlined in blue):

• HTML
• CSV
• JSON
• XML

Note:
The default reporting formats are:

• HTML
• CSV

Directly below the Discover Scan Settings section of the screen is the "Discover Accounts and Targets" section (title outlined in blue).

By default All Buckets option is selected (outlined in blue).  This is shown by all check-boxes being active (outlined in green).

To define less than all Buckets perform the following steps:

1. Click on the Select All Buckets check-box to de-activate the option.

This will uncheck all Buckets (outlined in blue).

2. Select the desired Buckets by checking the associated check-box to the Buckets to be selected.

In this example "abner1", "abner2",  "abner3-ol-enabled", "abner4", "aftest2", and "anup1" will be selected.
