Housekeeping and Aggregation

As a Health Monitoring Administrator, you can manage the retention time of raw and aggregated monitoring data as follows:

  • Retention Time for Raw Data: Defines the time period for which raw data is retained for Health Monitoring KPIs.
  • Retention Time for Aggregated Data (Hourly/Daily): Defines the time period for which hourly/daily aggregated data is retained for Health Monitoring KPIs.

The value bounds for such retention values are as follows.

  • For raw data, enter a value between 2 and 180 days
  • For hourly aggregated data, enter a value between 7 and 365 days
  • For daily aggregated data, enter a value between 7 and 720 days
  • Finally, make sure that retention times for raw, hourly aggregated and daily aggregated data are in (mildly) increasing sequence.

The specified retention times are valid for all monitored systems and services.

Furthermore, it is possible to have information on the database size of raw and hourly/daily aggregated data, and of their total memory contribution for each service and system. Please check the Data Volume section.
