It is important to protect your data by scheduling regular database backups. Also, 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.

What you should know
- The KiwiVision™ Manager database stores events with images and metadata, load balancing data related to the hardware used for the KiwiVision Analyzer roles, and the state of the analytics.
- The default SQL Express database server has a size limit of 10 GB, which might be exceeded when storing many events with images. When the limit is exceeded, no new events can be saved in the database.
- It is a best practice to schedule all database maintenance during non-peak hours.
Procedure
-
Click Cleanup (
), choose how long to keep events and when to delete old data, and then
click OK.
NOTE: By default, the For (keep data) setting is set to 90 days and the Clean each setting is set to Custom and no cleanup day is specified. Select the days on which the cleanup should take place. Otherwise, the cleanup will not run.
-
Click Backup/Restore (
), choose the location for backup files, enable automatic backups at least once per
week, and then click OK.
