App Control: Is it Supported to Add Files for Each Filegroup on the Database?

Products

• Carbon Black App Control (formerly Cb Protection)

Issue/Introduction

• Does the product support adding additional files for each filegroup on the DAS database?
• Allowing SQL Server to use more CPU cores to access data in each filegroup

Environment

• App Control Server: All Versions
• Microsoft Windows: All Supported Versions

Resolution

• Currently the CPU core distribution for file group, and the sizing increments of the log file growth, are customizable 
• This will not void the support agreement, or put it in an unsupported configuration
• If issues arise from any of the configuration changes made it may be required to move back to a more standard configuration
