Hi Adam,

Thanks for helping me here

Can we add as many paths as we can in that dialogue box for single job? 

What can be the impact policy refer does it effect the node traffic?

Thanks and Regards,

Yes, you can add multiple paths for the job.  Not sure of the limit, I've usually not done more than 4 or 5 but it's possible you can have more.

Impact policy refers to the amount of cluster resources the job will use.  LOW, from my memory is no more than 10% of total cluster resources, HIGH doesn't have a cap.  I haven't been able to find MEDIUM but, as you could guess, it's somewhere in the middle.  TreeDelete is one of the few jobs that doesn't use LOW as a default since there are times when you really need to clear up space.  But you can change the policy of a job any time.  The UI can probably do it, the CLI can definitely do it (isi job....)

Also, remember that if your goal is to increase free space on the cluster, you should check that you don't have any snapshots in those paths as those will cause OneFS to retain the blocks until the snapshots expire.  One of the fastest ways to bloat your snapshots is to delete a bunch of data.
