Service precedence

Some services take precedence over others.

  • On any given node, the Capacity Balancing service takes precedence over the Scavenging service. If the Scavenging service is running when the Capacity Balancing service starts, the Scavenging service stops. When the Capacity Balancing service stops, the Scavenging service automatically restarts, providing that it is scheduled to run at that time.
  • On any given node, the Migration service takes precedence over the Capacity Balancing service. If the Capacity Balancing service is running when the Migration service starts, the Capacity Balancing service stops. It does not restart automatically when the Migration service stops.
  • On any given node, the Protection service takes precedence over the Compression/Encryption and Content Verification services. If either of these services is running when the Protection service starts, the service that was running stops. When the Protection service stops, each service that stopped automatically restarts, provided that the service is scheduled to run at that time.
