Steps

DATADIR/events folder size

  • Over a period of six months, in a moderately stable environment, the folder size reaches about 200MB. Set the data retention settings accordingly.

  • Purge very old Data Insight events with the approval of the event owners.

Accumulation of backlog in DATADIR/inbox

  • Verify the date of the oldest file (backlog). If the file is very old, it means that the audit or the scan files are unable to keep up with the collection.

  • Use the configcli list_jobs command to collect the schedule and last run of the ADScanJob, ProcessEventsJob, and IndexWriterJob processes.

  • Collect Event Viewer logs.

  • Collect the output of the indexcli -j command.

Presence of old or stale reports in the following folder:

DATADIR/console/reports/reportruns

  • If the reports are no longer required, archive or delete them.

  • For each report, set a reasonable value in the Maximum reports to preserve field.

SMTP and events notification check

Ensure that these settings are configured.
