How to: |
Because the Job Log accumulates information and can become difficult to navigate, it is recommended that you periodically purge the Job Log to remove older information and conserve space.
You can control automatic purging of the Job Log at predefined intervals of time. Edit the LOG_PURGE_PERIOD parameter in the schedule section of the Distribution Server bkrsched.cfg file.
For example, to automatically purge Job Log reports every two days, type:
LOG_PURGE_PERIOD 2
The parameter applies to the Two-Way Email Job Log and the ReportCaster Job Log. For more information, see the ReportCaster Development and Administration manual.
