At the moment it seems that every DMA in the cluster creates a __Service_[serviceName] log file during startup to indicate the loading status. We can see that there is a correlation between the DMA's that have fast disks and slow disks to load 10000 services. 37min for the slow disks and 5min for the fast disks. Therefore, we believe it could be a quick win on disk to disable those log files during startup. Is it possible for DataMiner to work without those __Service_[serviceName] log files?
__Service_xxxx.txt files are the logfiles for services. They are used not only during the loading stage, but also to log certain activity while the service is active.
Currently there is no option to selectively disable certain log file types (elements/services/redundancy groups/...)
