Optional Segregation of SMF Records

With CA SMF Director it is possible to break up your SMF MAN file records into several historical archives called substreams. These substreams can be set up with different retention periods, archival methods, and other properties. This way, records can be kept for different lengths of time or on different media based on their record types.
