Novell iFolder Administration Guide
If a user wants to recover data from a deleted or corrupted file, you can restore
his folder to a secondary iFolder server and from there he can access his files.
1
At the Server Management Console, click User Accounts.
2
Roll your mouse over the user's ID and look at the ID that appears in the
bottom of your browser.
3
Restore this folder from a backup tape to a secondary iFolder server that
the user can attach to and restore the files.
You can change your LDAP settings by clicking the LDAP link, located on the
left-hand side of the Server Management Console.
You can optimize the performance of your iFolder server in the following
ways:
Add more RAM to your server.
Increase the threads. (This only applies to Apache Web Servers running
on NetWare.)
For optimal performance, we recommend one thread per client; however,
in terms of scalability, iFolder has been tested up to 25 clients per thread.
Change the amount of disk space alloted to your iFolder users.
Be careful; allotting large amounts of disk space to users could decrease
the iFolder server's performance.
Change the default sync delay parameters if you have thousands of users
and you need to improve the iFolder server performance.
Current defaults:
5-second delay after file activity
20-second server polling interval
To improve performance, make the following changes:
30-second delay after file activity
1-minute server polling interval
