TEC Task Library - Clean_Database

Deletes old events from the event database. Events are deleted from the reception log based on the value set in the Time to Keep Event Reception Log Information field in the Event Server Parameters dialog for the event server. Closed events in the event repository that are older than the value set for the Time to Keep Closed Events in Cache field in the Event Server Parameters dialog are deleted.

Perform the following step to configure the task:

  1. Select Clean_Database from the TEC Tasks list in the Task Execution dialog box. (There are no additional options for this task.)

After executing this task, old events deleted from the event repository are not removed from an event console until it is shut down and reopened. Old events in the event cache are not removed until the event server is stopped and restarted, or until the old events reach their timeout value.
