Event Archive Settings Are Required

If upgrading from CPAM release 1.3 or earlier, you are automatically redirected to the Event configuration page of the ICPAM Server Administration utility.

Use this page to enter the required event pruning and archive settings. You cannot start the server or perform other activities until event archiving is successfully configured.

The following additional conditions apply:

·         If you are upgrading redundant HA servers, the historical event archive settings are only required on the primary appliance.

·         If the appliance being upgraded has existing automation rules configured for historical events, the following occurs during the upgrade:

o       Commands to copy, prune, or archive events are removed. If the automation rule only includes these commands, then the entire rule is removed. The system will use the new event pruning and archiving settings you are prompted to enter during the upgrade.

o       If the automation rule also includes actions to create reports, then the automation rule is upgraded and the reports rules are saved in the upgraded system.

For instructions and more information, see the Archiving Historical Events.
