It is important to protect your data by scheduling regular database backups. In addition, regularly clean your database to remove old data so that the database does not grow beyond its capacity. If the database is full it can cause your integration to stop working.
Before you begin
- Get access to the Server Admin machine and log on credentials.
- Ensure you have the following privileges:
- View role properties
- Modify role properties
- Administration > Intrusion detection
What you should know
- The Intrusion Manager role database contains event notifications from the DMP intrusion panels.
- The Directory database contains the entities and their configuration, and custom events.
- It is a best practice to schedule all database maintenance during non-peak hours.
