What data for this category looks like

Data for this category comes from backup systems, database logs, object storage, and disaster recovery platforms. Documents produced daily include backup policies, recovery drill reports, disaster recovery switchover plans, and data verification records. Data update frequencies fall into three categories: daily, monthly, and quarterly. Core fields include backup timestamp, recovery point objective duration, data verification hash value, and drill execution status. Units include seconds, GB, number of executions, and more. There is no unified fixed multi-dimensional aggregate statistics format.

Mixed multi-source data access requires the traceability link to clearly bind unique identifiers for each data source. This prevents duplicate data interference from different backup systems. Documents with different update frequencies must match corresponding recall timeliness rules. Daily updated drill reports need to support real-time retrieval. Quarterly updated backup policies can use lower retrieval priority. Decentralized document structures require configuring field mapping rules. These rules bind core fields such as backup timestamp and recovery point objective duration to test case check items. Data consistency verification results must be directly linked to the hash value of original logs. This ensures tamper-proof traceability and supports accurate defect analysis.

How to set configurations

Configuration ItemRecommended SettingRationale
quoteMaxToken8000–12000 tokenMatches the single-document length of disaster recovery drill reports and data verification records, avoiding truncation of core verification fields
responseDataOnly return data sources from backup systems and disaster recovery platformsFilters irrelevant log data, focusing on core traceability sources for this category
detailEnable full field displayShows core fields such as backup timestamp and recovery point objective duration, supporting defect analysis for test cases
Maximum Context4000–6000 tokenAdapts to the splicing length of multi-source data, meeting cross-document associated traceability needs
Single Search LimitTop 6 entriesCovers recall volume for daily updated drill reports and quarterly updated backup policies, avoiding interference from redundant data
Data Source Timeout Threshold300 secondsAdapts to interface response durations of disaster recovery platforms, preventing retrieval interruptions

Three common configuration errors

  • Phenomenon: The generated traceability prompt includes unparsed \n escape characters, with no natural line break display. Cause: The text format parsing switch under the detail configuration is not enabled, and native escape content from original backup logs is returned directly.
  • Phenomenon: The number of traceability data entries returned by retrieval is insufficient, failing to cover the complete content of a single recovery drill report. Cause: The single search limit is set too low, not matching average recall demands for daily updated documents in this category.
  • Phenomenon: Traceability results do not link to the data verification hash value field, making verification of recovered data consistency impossible. Cause: No multi-source data field mapping rules are configured, and core fields from disaster recovery platform verification records are not bound.

How to confirm configuration is complete

  • Log in to the FastGPT v4.17.0 configuration page, and check whether settings for quoteMaxToken, responseData, and detail match preset values.
  • Initiate a test case query for the disaster recovery drill scenario, and verify that line breaks in the traceability prompt work normally, with no unparsed escape characters.
  • Review the total number of retrieval results, confirming they align with the single search limit setting, with no obvious missing core documents.
  • Check whether traceability results include core fields such as backup timestamp and data verification hash value, verifying that field mapping rules are active.
