It is important to regularly clean your database to remove old data so that the
database does not grow beyond its capacity. If the database is full, your integration might stop
working.
Before you begin
Ensure you have the following privileges:
- View role properties
- Modify role properties
- Administration > Plugins
What you should know
- The plugin role database stores the events and the
entity configuration.
- The plugin role database contains plugin
properties, related entities, events, and alarms associated with automated license plate recognition cameras.
Procedure
To configure database cleanup:
-
From the ALPR plugin, navigate to the Database cleanup section
of the Data sinks page.
-
In the Batch size field, quantify the number of items you want
the cleanup to handle at one time. A larger batch size is more efficient, but might
experience timeouts on systems with less resources.
-
In the Batch delay ms field, define a time period after which
the next batch will be processed.
-
In the Data retention section, define time periods for the
retention of ALPR reads, ALPR read images, and ALPR hits.
-
Click Apply.
To configure backup and restore settings:
-
Navigate to the Resources page in the Genetecâ„¢ Third-Party ALPR plugin.
-
Click Backup/Restore (), choose the location for backup files, enable
automatic backups at least once per week, and then click
OK.
-
Click Apply.
