Issue |
If we have a 4 node network with 39 network licenses will there be network traffic due to the extra licenses that are not needed? If so, how can we eliminate that traffic?
|
Solution |
The only additional network traffic that will be experienced is 'nameloc' trying to poll nodes that do not exist (it will try to poll all nodes up to the number of licenses). This overhead is very small but can be eliminated by use of the '-e' option to nameloc (e.g. 'nameloc -e4'). This will tell nameloc to only poll up to and including node 4. |
