How to clean database from old DCI or alerts?
I Found the problem, when NETXMS starting syncing/loading all alerts - I have over 1 million and how to clean this? Can't terminate because time out
Hi,
I believe reducing the AlarmHistoryRetentionTime from the default of 180 days, followed by running the housekeeper process (which usually runs once a night, but can be triggered by opening the NetXMS Server Console and running "hkrun") should clean that up somewhat. The housekeeper may run for a very long time though.
Same with DCI data, you can set a DefaultDCIRetentionTime (or per DCI) as well as EventLog, AuditLog, Syslog and SNMPTrapRetentionTime.
Not sure what database you are running. If it's Postgres, make sure your autovacuums are running properly, especially on the raw_dci_values table.
Cheers
Hi,
I suggest to either truncate alarms table completely (but you will lose all alarm history) or delete alarms older than certain time before starting netxmsd. You can do this by running query
DELETE FROM alarms WHERE last_change_time < ?;
Replace placeholder with actual time stamp. It is in UNIX time format, you can use this calculator to get value: https://www.epochconverter.com/ (https://www.epochconverter.com/).
