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.
Before you begin
- View role properties
- Modify role properties
- Administration > Plugins
What you should know
- Events that occur in the OnGuard system (timestamp of the event being raised, entities attached to the event, etc.)
- Active alarm triggers and those pending acknowledgment.
The Directory database stores the plugin configuration and related entity types.
Procedure
-
Click Cleanup (
),
choose how long to keep events and when to delete old data, and then click
OK.
NOTE: By default, the Keep data setting is set to 30 days and the Clean each setting is set to custom and has no clean up day specified. This means that data will never be cleaned up unless you select a day on which it will occur.
-
Click Backup/Restore (
), choose the location for backup files, enable
automatic backups at least once per week, and then click
OK.
