Hi DOJO,
I have configured a central offload database to a file. The offload interval is 30 minutes, but my trend data offload is configured for every parameter once every day at 05:00:
So, I expect a file in C:\Skyline DataMiner\System Cache\Offload\Data every day at 05:00, which I get.
However, I notice that I also have some other files there at other times of the day. I analyzed them, and they are related to a dynamic table where some columns are trended. However, this file does not specify a specific trend column, it only has the table ID, and it has no trend value, example:
Why is this file being generated with only this entry and outside of my time configuration?
Hi Catarina,
Regarding your questions:
– Why is this file appearing in the trend data?
– Why is it being generated outside the configured time of 05:00?
These files are generated asynchronously whenever Dataminer detects an unexpected change on the trended parameters. In the example above, we are informed that the row in the table 'Task Manager' (pid 96) corresponding to the process 'SLHelper#1:0" was deleted (-16, see other possible values here) at the specified time.
This information is purely informational, and it is up to the third-party application processing/parsing these files to decide whether or not to use it.
