Environment Variables

OWNCLOUD_CHUNK_SIZE

10000000
(or 10 MB)

Specifies the initial chunk size of uploaded files in bytes. The client will dynamically adjust this size within the maximum and minimum bounds (see below). To disable chunking completely, set OWNCLOUD_CHUNK_SIZE=0 .

OWNCLOUD_MAX_CHUNK_SIZE

100000000
(or 100 MB)

Specifies the maximum chunk size of uploaded files in bytes.

OWNCLOUD_MIN_CHUNK_SIZE

1000000
(or 1 MB)

Specifies the minimum chunk size of uploaded files in bytes.

OWNCLOUD_TARGET_CHUNK_UPLOAD_DURATION

60000

Target duration in milliseconds for chunk uploads. The client adjusts the chunk size until each chunk upload takes approximately this long. Set to 0 to disable dynamic chunk sizing.

OWNCLOUD_CHUNKING_NG

300

The timeout for network connections in seconds.

OWNCLOUD_CRITICAL_FREE_SPACE_BYTES

50*1000*1000 bytes

The minimum disk space needed for operation. A fatal error is raised if less free space is available.

OWNCLOUD_FREE_SPACE_BYTES

250*1000*1000 bytes

Downloads that would reduce the free space below this value are skipped. More information available under the "Low Disk Space" section.

OWNCLOUD_MAX_PARALLEL

6

Maximum number of parallel jobs.

OWNCLOUD_BLACKLIST_TIME_MIN

25

Minimum timeout, in seconds, for blacklisted files.

OWNCLOUD_BLACKLIST_TIME_MAX

24*60*60
(or one day)

Maximum timeout, in seconds, for blacklisted files.

OWNCLOUD_FULL_LOCAL_DISCOVERY_INTERVAL

3600000
