Title: Set a new standard retention time?
Post by: xenth on April 04, 2008, 03:51:44 PM
Is it possible to set a different retention time? I couldn't find it in the options and it would save me a lot of time!  :)

Thanks in advance

Hello!

Retention time for what? Each DCI has it's own retention time for collected data. It is configured in DCI properties dialog. Retention time for event log, trap log, etc. can be configured via server configuration parameters, accessible through Control Panel -> Server Configuration.

Best regards,
Victor

Sorry should have been clearer, what I meant to say was: How do I configure all DCI's to have a higher retention time, or can this only be done manually?

Unfortunately, it can be done only manually. I'll add it to wish list. As a workaround for mass update you can stop NetXMS server and do update directly in database. Also, using templates for commonly used DCIs will help a bit.

Best regards,
