How to configure data retention if prompt to configure performance data retention does not appear when upgrading UM
Applies to
Active IQ Unified Manager 9.7
Answer
- The prompt mentioned in the explanation of Active IQ Unified Manager 9.7 Installation Guide appears only when the current configuration of Performance Data Retention is equal to or less than 6 months.
During upgrade, you may be prompted to confirm whether you want to keep the previous default settings for retaining performance data for 13 months or to change it to 6 months. On confirming, the historical performance data after 6 months is purged.
- When the prompt does not appear during upgrade, configuration is not changed.
Additional Information
Performance Data Retention can be changed on Unified Manager GUI:
- Click General -> Data Retention
- Change value of Performance Data Retention
- Press Save
