There are two scheduler tasks available:
- File Abstraction Layer: Update storage index
This can be used if changes are possible outside the backend 
(FTP/Remotestorages)

- File Abstraction Layer: Extract metadata in storage
This update the metadata of files that have been changed since the last run
