Greetings.
I have inherited a very large and oversized Log Analyzer implementation.
We* have set event retention back to 7 days which I believe is the default. However, a few days later we still find data in the logging DB from well over 7 days ago.
1. does Log Analyzer data pruning run at the same time / along with Solarwinds database maintenance?
2. does Log Analyzer have logs to examine so to determine what data pruning activities have occurred?
I have worked with other log collection tools such as Splunk but I am new to Solarwinds Log Analyzer.
Thanks in advance for any ideas from the community. Cheers.
* we - small team of us running Solarwinds and Log Analyzer.
