To limit the amount of reporting data being stored in your NetScaler Console server’s database, you can specify the interval for which you want NetScaler Console to keep network reporting data, events, audit logs, and task logs. By default, this data is pruned every 24 hours (at 00.00 hours).

Configure system prune settings

To configure system prune setting:

  1. Navigate to Settings > Data Storage Management > Data Retention Policy.

  2. In the Data Pruning page, click System.

  3. In the System page, enter the following details:

    • Data to keep(days) - Enter the number of days for which the data must be retained. You must specify a value between 1 and 30.

    • Data Prune Threshold Value (%) - Enter a threshold limit (in percentage) to set as a condition for data pruning or data cleanup processes. When the data in the database reaches this specified percentage of storage capacity, data pruning procedures are triggered to remove to data and free up space.

    • Auto Prune Details - Select Enable Automatic Data Prune if you want data pruning to start when either of the following criteria is met:

      • The data threshold value specified in Data Prune Threshold Value (%) is reached.
      • The number of days specified in Data to keep (days) value is reached.

    • Data Ingestion Setting - Enter a threshold limit (in percentage) to set as a condition for data ingestion. When the data in the database reaches this specified percentage, the data ingestion activity is paused. You must specify a limit within the range of 50% to 80%.
