To improve operational efficiency, you can modify the scbr.override configuration file to change default values. These values control settings such as the number of VMware snapshots that are created or deleted during a backup or the amount of time before a backup script stops running.
The scbr.override configuration file is used in SnapCenter Plug-in for VMware vSphere environments that support SnapCenter. If this file does not exist, then you must create it from the template file.
Creating the scbr.override configuration file
- Go to C:\Program Files\NetApp\Virtual Storage Console\etc\scbr\scbr.override-template.
- Copy the scbr.override-template file to a new file called
scbr.override in the C:\Program Files\NetApp\SnapCenter\SnapCenter Plugin for VMware\etc\scbr directory.
Using the scbr.override configuration file
- By default, the template uses "#" to comment the configuration properties. To use a property to modify a configuration value, you must remove the "#" characters.
- You must restart the Windows service on the SnapCenter Plug-in for VMware vSphere host for the changes to take effect.
