## `SCHEDULED_SEARCH_BACKFILL_LIMIT`

Option | `SCHEDULED_SEARCH_BACKFILL_LIMIT`
Description | Configures the global maximum backfill limit for scheduled searches
Introduced Version | 1.19
Default | `5`
Minimum | `-1`
Maximum | `100`

Controls the global maximum backfill limit for scheduled searches. In cases where a scheduled search cannot be executed, such as if LogScale is shut down, LogScale will try to backfill missed searches one at a time from oldest to newest. With this parameter you can set the global limit for how many searches to backfill. Users are also able to set a backfill limit for each individual search, but this is not allowed to exceed the global limit defined.

If this global limit is to -1 the backfill limit on a scheduled search will take precedence. If this global limit is changed, such that the limit set on a scheduled search then exceeds the new global limit, then the backfill will be capped at this new global limit.

This configuration parameter is only used for scheduled searches running on @timestamp.
