This topic describes how to configure a data loading strategy for an elastic gateway in the Cloud Storage Gateway (CSG) console.

Background information

CSG provides three data loading strategies: no load, full load, and incremental load.

Data loading strategies

  1. No load: Metadata is never loaded from Object Storage Service (OSS) buckets.
  2. Full load: Metadata is loaded from OSS buckets only once.
  3. Incremental load: Metadata is loaded from OSS buckets at regular intervals.
    Note A data loading cycle cannot be less than 60 seconds. If it is equal to 60, metadata is loaded from OSS buckets every 60 seconds.
