4. Data Retention Settings

The Data Retention Settings allow you to configure how long monitoring data is stored in the system before being automatically deleted. This helps manage database size and ensures that outdated monitoring information does not accumulate indefinitely.

Configuration Options

1. Uptime Monitoring Retention (days)

• Description: Determines the number of days that service uptime and incident data are retained in the system.

• Effect: Any uptime or incident records older than the specified number of days will be automatically deleted.

• Example:

  • If set to 13, any uptime or incident data older than 13 days will be removed from the system.

2. Server Monitoring Retention (days)

• Description: Determines the number of days that server metrics and process data are retained in the system.

• Effect: Any server monitoring data older than the specified number of days will be automatically deleted.

• Example:

  • If set to 20, any server metrics or process data older than 20 days will be removed from the system.

How to Apply Changes

1. Update the desired retention days in the respective input fields:

   • Uptime Monitoring Retention (days)

   • Server Monitoring Retention (days)

2. Click the Save Changes button to apply the new settings.

Note: The system will automatically perform the cleanup based on the configured retention periods once per day.
