An Option Page for configuration variable could be very useful

[vtasio]

A page that configuration such as the below could be saved/changed and used:

• Scan Engine Max retries
• Number of second to wait before perform a request to scan engine
• In how many items to split the assets during scan
• Haw many concurrent jobs to start
• etc...

hi @vtasio : great idea. We could also use the Settings model for global configuration parameters ?

[vtasio]

To tell you the truth , i have not used that menu at all. But i think i got it . You can use in setting all the variable that can be found in https://github.com/Patrowl/PatrowlDocs/blob/master/installation/patrowlmanager-settings.md and override the one's in the config files ?

Probably not all , i think you are only using it for the "Alert notification settings" on the above link ?

[MaKyOtOx]

Yes, it would be nice. We just have to clearly specify a priority order. Example:
Scan Settings > Engine Settings > Global Settings > Environment variables

[MaKyOtOx]

Yes, I'm just using the Settings model for notification settings. BTW, it could be extended to all global variables ?

[vtasio]

I will try to find a way to make but, this might be a little more complicated for my knowledge. If you start with something that i can rely on (before me ), i believe i could extend it .

Question: are you setting up somewhere the number of Jobs to it is the outcome of asset split during scan ? for example 400 assets scan , splited by 100 . This will produce 4 concurrent jobs ?
