Viewing Data Aging Statistics for Performance

Data Aging includes Data Rollup and Garbage Collection. Data Rollup controls how often a set of

data is summarized. For example, hourly data is rolled into the daily table periodically. Garbage

Collection refers to how long a set of data is preserved before it is permanently removed from the

database.
The settings on this page control data aging for both reports and performance statistics.

IMPORTANT:

Do not modify the data on this page unless instructed by customer support.

Changing them incorrectly can adversely affect the management server.
