Fields ​

FieldWhat it doesWhat is written after it
--autoCleanPercentageThresholdDetermines at which occupancy percentage of the disk the cleaning will startA percentage value (the default is 90)
--autoCleanMonthThresholdDetermines how many months old the data to be cleaned isA number of months (the default is 12)

Examples ​

TR7 WEB-CLI · settings disk-management
# clean when the disk is 85 percent full, remove what is older than six months
admin@TR7LBWAF01> settings disk-management update --autoCleanPercentageThreshold 85 --autoCleanMonthThreshold 6
admin@TR7LBWAF01> settings disk-management show
admin@TR7LBWAF01>  

Things to Know ​

  • The two thresholds work together. The cleaning starts when the occupancy percentage is exceeded and removes the data older than the stated month.
  • Lowering the threshold means earlier cleaning. When the percentage value is made smaller, the cleaning runs more often.
  • The deleted data does not come back. If long-term retention is needed, the reports and the backups should be sent out with settings file-transport.
