Disk Space Filling on Appliances in NCM Environment

Solution

Version: 8.0.2.16


Issue:  Disk space filling on appliances in NCM environment.  

If host propagation was enabled on the NCM and host aging was enabled on 1 pod but not the others, the hosts were propagated to all pods, but immediately aged on the pod that had aging enabled. When there were hundreds of hosts which had exceeded their expiration time, this repeated propagation and immediate aging.  This results in excessive system resource consumption, including the potential for the disk space to fill.
