Configure Automatic Archiving for an Alarm Server

You can configure automatic event archiving for each alarm server in your system. This is achieved via the alarm server properties (see Add an Alarm Server Process).

To configure automatic archiving for an alarm server:

1. In the Topology activity, select Edit.
2. On the menu below the Command Bar, select Alarm Servers. All configured alarms servers are displayed.
3. Locate the record for the required alarm server.
4. In the Archive Internal (Days) field, enter the number of days after which archiving will automatically occur.
5. Confirm that Archive Path and Archive Prefix fields are correctly configured (see Specify a Destination for Archived Events).
6. Click Save.

Note: In order for archiving succeed, the "KeepOnlineFor" and "ArchiveAfter" parameters need to be configured correctly (see Configure the Archiving Parameters).
