Best practices for scanning IBM Cloud Object Storage systems

It is recommended to check the log files in the following directories after each scan:

/opt/ibm/metaocean/data/connections/cos/<connection_name>/debug/<scan_timestamp>/scanner.debug indicates whether the scan was successful or not.

/opt/ibm/metaocean/data/connections/cos/<connection_name>/error/<scan_timestamp>/scanner.error contains a list of all the messages that are not delivered to IBM Spectrum® Discover.

This file contains a list of all the messages that are not delivered to IBM Spectrum Discover.

/opt/ibm/metaocean/data/connections/cos/<connection_name>/data/<scan_timestamp>/ contains a subfolder with the scanned data source name. There is a stats folder inside this folder that contains information about the number of objects in the data source or the number of objects or scanned files.
