ble/wipe-speedlimit

A template to define the BLE config.txt with.

Defines the MaxMBPerSecond configuration value for the BlanccoLUNEraser integration. The value is expressed in MB. This value will limit the erasure I/O speed.

Blancco LUN Eraser automatically attempts to optimize its speed to achieve the highest possible performance. However, in a live environment this is not always the best option. The user has the option to limit the speed to a fixed number of MB per second.

Here is an example with a speed limit of 5 MB/s:

• ble/wipe-speedlimit: 5

The speed limit should never be set to a lower value than the buffer size. Should that happen, the speed limit might not hold constant but can vary during the operation. If the buffer size is set to dynamic, it will automatically never exceed the speed limit. The speed limit is set per operation. If more than one thread or process is in use (either manual or automatic), the speed limit still effects each operation independently. For example, if two processes are running simultaneously with the above example, a total of 10 MB per second will be consumed.

The default value is 0, which signfies to no speed limit being imposed on the wipe operations.
