Configuring FlexiCapture input and output

Frequently, the bottleneck that limits performance of the system is the input (import) or the output (export).

Below are the two ways to increase performance in bottlenecks of FlexiCapture:

1. If it is assumed that a large number of Processing Stations will simultaneously import files from a hot folder or

export files to file system, then the hot folder and/or the export target must be located on the computer with

the server edition of the operating system. Normally, client operating systems support a limited number of

connections which may lead to error in import/export tasks.

2. If a hot folder is assumed to be processed at several Processing Stations, then bandwidth to the hot folder

will be divided between the Processing Stations which may lead to bandwidth shortage. In this case, it is rec-

ommended to use multiple independent hot folders. If export to files is performed, it is recommended that ex-

port target should not be on the same computer with the hot folders

Using performance counters

To monitor FlexiCapture state and search for bottlenecks, the Performance Monitor utility can be used.

FlexiCapture counters

FlexiCapture own counters are located in the category FlexiCapture.
