Configure potential relationship table limits
Configure the maximum potential relationship records that automated correlation can create. By default, each potential relationship table has a limit of 1,000,000 records for each domain.
Before you begin
Role required: sn_sec_tisc.admin
About this task
Automated correlation stops creating potential relationships when a potential relationship table reaches its record limit. Review the system logs for further information.
Procedure
-
Select All.
-
In the navigation filter, enter
sn_sec_tisc_table_threshold_config.listand press Enter.The Table Threshold Configuration list opens.
-
Open the record for the potential relationship table you want to update.
The base system provides a record for each of these tables:
- sn_sec_tisc_m2m_observable_potential
- sn_sec_tisc_m2m_indicator_potential
- sn_sec_tisc_m2m_object_potential
- sn_sec_tisc_m2m_object_indicator_potential
-
Review the Current Record Count field.
The record count updates every 10 minutes.
-
In the Record Limit field, enter the maximum number of records for the table.
Warning: Retain a value close to the default of 1,000,000. Higher limits let the table grow well beyond the volume that the correlation engine is tuned for, which can cause performance issues as your threat intelligence data grows.
-
Verify that the Enable Record Limit check box is selected.
Warning: If this check box is cleared, no limit is enforced and the table can grow without restriction, which can degrade instance performance.
-
Verify that the Active check box is selected.
-
Select Update.
Result
Automated correlation creates potential relationships in the table until the record count reaches the limit you set.

# Configure potential relationship table limits
Configure the maximum potential relationship records that automated correlation can create. By default, each potential relationship table has a limit of 1,000,000 records for each domain.
## Before you begin
Role required: sn\_sec\_tisc.admin
## About this task
Automated correlation stops creating potential relationships when a potential relationship table reaches its record limit. Review the system logs for further information.
## Procedure
1. Select **All**.
2. In the navigation filter, enter `sn_sec_tisc_table_threshold_config.list` and press Enter.
The Table Threshold Configuration list opens.
3. Open the record for the potential relationship table you want to update.
The base system provides a record for each of these tables:
- sn\_sec\_tisc\_m2m\_observable\_potential
- sn\_sec\_tisc\_m2m\_indicator\_potential
- sn\_sec\_tisc\_m2m\_object\_potential
- sn\_sec\_tisc\_m2m\_object\_indicator\_potential
4. Review the **Current Record Count** field.
The record count updates every 10 minutes.
5. In the **Record Limit** field, enter the maximum number of records for the table.
**Warning:** Retain a value close to the default of 1,000,000. Higher limits let the table grow well beyond the volume that the correlation engine is tuned for, which can cause performance issues as your threat intelligence data grows.
6. Verify that the **Enable Record Limit** check box is selected.
**Warning:** If this check box is cleared, no limit is enforced and the table can grow without restriction, which can degrade instance performance.
7. Verify that the **Active** check box is selected.
8. Select **Update**.
## Result
Automated correlation creates potential relationships in the table until the record count reaches the limit you set.
