Archiving

Disk space is gradually used up as data is stored in Historical. To conserve space, information should be archived if it is not currently in use. Archive scheduling is the customer’s responsibility and must be configured according to each customer’s individual requirements. If required, archived information can be dearchived and restored to Historical.

The Archive host is the server with a physical connection to an Archive device. Install the Archive device on the Archive host. The Historical databases can then be configured to be archived on the Archive device. For the archiving to function properly, define and set up the designated archive device entries, and then customize the Archive schedule.

Notes: The Archive service does not support full redundancy. It should be configured as a single-hosted service.

The Archive service on the Archive host must be running in order for Archiving to function properly.
