Storage statistics

To open the Storage Statistics pane, go to Log View > Storage Statistics, or in the Device Manager quick status bar, click Storage Used.

The pane shows visualizations of disk space usage for Analytic and Archive logs. The policy diagrams show an overview and the details graphs show disk space usage details.

The policy diagram shows the percentage of the disk space quota that is used. Hover your cursor over the diagram to view the used, free, and total allotted disk space. The configured length of time that logs are stored is also shown.

To view or change log storage policies, click Storage Settings in the toolbar to open the Edit Log Storage Policy dialog box.

The details graph shows the amount disk space used, in MBs, over the time period that the logs are stored for. Click Max Line to show a line on the graph for the total space allotted. Hover over a spot in the graph to view the used and available disk space at that specific date and time. Click on a point in the details graph to open a breakdown of the disk space usage by device.

When the used quota approaches 100 percent, a warning message displays when accessing the Storage Statistics pane.

Click Configure Now to open the Edit Log Storage Policy dialog box where you can adjust log storage policies to prevent running out of allocated space (see Configure log storage), or click Remind Me Later to resolve the issue another time.
