2. Use the fields in the Retain Messages section to set the percentage of IDM event
types you want to save in the Events database and display in the Events tab.
These percentages are based on the overall size set in the Max number of events
field, and must equal 100 percent. If the maximum events is exceeded, the first
type of event to get archived will be Informational, then Warning, then Minor,
and so on as needed to maintain the maximum number of events shown in the
display.
For example, Informational events is set to 60 percent. When the archive file
reaches the archive storage limit and there are more than 600 Informational
events, the oldest Informational event is deleted.
To ensure you maintain all Critical and Major events, set the total of the two types
to 100 percent (for example, 60 and 40), and set the other severity types to 0
percent.
3. To archive events when the maximum storage size is reached, select the Archive
IDM events check box. If archiving is disabled (unchecked), events removed
from the Events window are deleted.
