Settings > Configuration > Data Purge options
By default, data purge is enabled.
Data purge settings help you manage the retention of the data that you have collected from NetBackup. For each data type, you can set the data retention in days. After the specified number of days, the corresponding data is purged from the OpsCenter database. Once the data is purged, you cannot retrieve it. For each data type, you can either use the default setting or change it as required.
Edit the default data purge options as follows:

Set the number of days after which you want to purge the backup jobs (default is 220 days). The number of days set for backup logs should be less than or equal to the number of days set for backup jobs. In other words, logs can be purged earlier than their respective jobs, or they can be purged at the same time. | |

Set the number of days to retain Tape Drive History logs (default is 31 days). | |
Set the number of days to retain Media History logs (default is 31 days). | |
Enter the number of days for which you want to retain the Alert data (default is 31 days). Alert data older than this number is purged from the OpsCenter database. | |

Number of days for which you want to retain the Audit Trail records. Note: By default, data purge for Audit Trail is set to 420 days. | |
