Configure Max Archive Days for Restored Archives

When you configure the Event Log Store for a CA User Activity Reporting Module dedicated as a restore point, we recommend you override the global setting for Max Archive Days and set it to the maximum, 28000. If the number of days to store archived database files before deleting it is set to a lower value than the age of the restored database files, those files are deleted by the system immediately after being restored to a warm state.

Note: This procedure applies only to files restored to a new event log store.

To set the max archive days to accommodate the age of restored files

1. Click the Administration tab and the Services subtab.
2. In the Service List, expand the Event Log Store folder and select the CA User Activity Reporting Module that is the dedicated restore point.
3. Click the toggle button next to Max Archive Days to switch to local configuration and enable the entry field.
4. Set the field to a value in days that accommodates the oldest file you will restore. The maximum value is 28000.
5. Click Save.
