The maximum limit of defined policies has not been established. If the number of policies exceeds the recommended limit, you should keep in mind the following effects: ● SyncIQ is bound by the limit on the number of concurrently running policies. If many policies are running on schedules, the queue to run the jobs might become so large that OneFS can never complete all the jobs in the queue. ● Each policy represents a set of snapshots on the source and the destination clusters. More snapshots mean that more jobs must run to delete the snapshots, and the increase in the number of jobs can negatively affect the cluster performance.
You can also refer to Security Configuration guide for your specific OneFS version.
The exact configuration should be based on your Infra requirements : RPO, RTO, network throughput, etc.

HI @chayapit You can refer the below:
As per Pg 16/18 of PowerScale OneFS Technical Specifications Guide (dell.com),
The recommended limit for defined SyncIQpolicies.

several SyncIQ policies is best for big directories.
