Optimizing performance by removing NICs from database

Filter and exclude the connections using the Exclude pattern for facts stored in {Project} and Ignore interfaces with matching identifier option. By default, these options are set to most common hypervisors. If you name the virtual interfaces differently, you can update this filter to use it according to your requirements.

Procedure

  1. In the {ProjectWebUI}, navigate to Administer > Settings and select the Facts tab.

  2. To filter out all interfaces starting with specific names, for example, blu, add blu* to the Ignore interfaces with matching identifier option.

  3. To prevent databases from storing facts related to interfaces starting with specific names, for example, blu, add blu* to the Exclude pattern for facts stored in {Project} option.

    By default, it contains the same list as the Ignore interfaces with matching identifier option. You can override it based on the your requirements. This filters out facts completely without storing them.

  4. To remove facts from the database, enter the following command:

    # foreman-rake facts:clean

    This command removes all facts matching with the filter added in Administer > Settings > Facts > the Exclude pattern for facts stored in {Project} option.

  5. To remove interfaces from the database, enter the following command:

    # foreman-rake interfaces:clean

    This command removes all interfaces matching with the filter added in Administer > Settings > Facts > the Ignore interfaces with matching identifier option.
