Configuring the data purge period on the OpsCenter Server

You can configure the OpsCenter Server retention periods for the data types that are logged, such as Job, Policy, and Skipped Files.

Note:

The details of the purged data are stored in the purge-status.log file, which is located in the OpsCenter server logs directory.

To configure the data purge period on the OpsCenter Server

  1. Log on to the OpsCenter console as admin.
  2. In the OpsCenter click Settings > Configuration.
  3. Click the Data Purge tab.

    By default, data purge is enabled.

  4. Edit the default data purge settings as necessary.

    See Settings > Configuration > Data Purge options.

  5. In the Time of Purge text box, enter the time of day (in 24-hour clock format) when you want to purge the data.
  6. Click Save.
