On a DMS with quite some spectrum elements and monitors that are set up to store spectrum traces when alarms occur, we see that spectrum alarm recordings are only kept for less than 24 hours, we would like to keep them at least for 4 days, so some investigations can be done.
The max dir size is set to 20000, while the C:\Skyline DataMiner\Spectrum Alarm Recordings folder is only 30MB, with 1750 files.
Are there any other settings available that might trigger cleanup of the alarm spectrum recordings?
Hi Matthijs,
I checked in the codebase, and the cleanup should only be triggered based on the maxDirSize. So if things are being cleaned before the folders grows beyond the defined value it sounds like an issue with reading out said value correctly.
At startup the SLSpectrum logging should log an information stating the configured value.
If you set the debug logging to 5 it will also log when a cleanup happened and the reason it selected certain records for deletion.
