Resolved aa500_psa_tweaks.conf in /etc/nginx/conf.d

Dukemaster

Regular Pleskian
Hi at all,
since one month I never looked in /etc/nginx/conf.d until yesterday.
I dicovered a (new) configuration file named aa500_psa_tweaks.conf created on 1st June 2017.
Lots of searches on internet and firstly Plesk Talk & Support and examinations what I and Plesk did on this date in June in the morning hours.
In short words I got nothing really helpful related to my environment and why this file was created, so that I decided to save it on my computer and delete it on server.
Content is only:
server_names_hash_max_size 1136;

Hours by hours I more and more unsure having deleted it. I wanted to upload again, but I remembered it has low permissions, around 400 maximum 440. But I'm not sure. And security it the most important thing.
I would immediatly shut down server instead running with only little security issues.
1. Does somebody knows what this file is for?
2. Do I need it? Backup file or not?
3. If uploading which correct permissions shall I set?

Lots of greets
 
Hi Dukemaster,

the file "aa500_psa_tweaks.conf" itself has the ( standart ) permission "rw-------" ( => "0600" ) for root : nginx .

This "tweaking" - file is setup to optimize "server_names_hash", to avoid memory over - usage for nginx. ;)
