Data collected by the HP Operations Agent is stored for 172800 seconds (two days) by default. To configure data purging from the command line, follow the steps:
Run the command to set the time interval to purge data:
Note: AutoPurgeIntervalSecs
defines the schedule at which the purge task would get triggered. By default, the purge task is started at 6 AM.
On Windows x64 system:
%ovinstalldir%bin\win64\ovconfchg -ns oacore
-set AutoPurgeIntervalSecs <interval>
In this instance, <interval>
specifies the duration after which data is removed from the metrics data store. <interval>
is always specified in seconds.
On Windows x86 system:
%ovinstalldir%bin\win32\ovconfchg -ns oacore
-set AutoPurgeIntervalSecs <interval>
On AIX:
/usr/lpp/OV/bin/ovconfchg -ns oacore
-set AutoPurgeIntervalSecs <interval>
On UNIX/Linux/Solaris/HP-UX:
/opt/OV/bin/ovconfchg -ns oacore
-set AutoPurgeIntervalSecs <interval>
Run the following command to set the data retention period:
On Windows x64 system:
%ovinstalldir%bin\win64\ovconfchg -ns oacore
-set KeepDataForSecs <retention_period>
In this instance, <retention_period>
specifies the duration to store data in the metrics data store. <retention_period>
is specified in seconds.
On Windows x86 system:
%ovinstalldir%bin\win32\ovconfchg -ns oacore
-set KeepDataForSecs <retention_period>
On AIX:
/usr/lpp/OV/bin/ovconfchg -ns oacore
-set KeepDataForSecs <retention_period>
On UNIX/Linux/Solaris/HP-UX:
/opt/OV/bin/ovconfchg -ns oacore
-set KeepDataForSecs <retention_period>
Run the following command to start agent processes:
On Windows x64 system:
%ovinstalldir%bin\win64\ovc -start oacore
On Windows x86 system:
%ovinstalldir%bin\win32\ovc -start oacore
On AIX:
/usr/lpp/OV/bin/ovc -start oacore
On UNIX/Linux/Solaris/HP-UX:
/opt/OV/bin/ovc -start oacore
Note: To see the set data retention period and data purging interval, run the following command:
ovconfget oacore
