Storage Configuration

The Storage Configuration section provides the storage configuration settings based on the Station Activity Log Retirement Policy. This policy enforces event archival or deletion based on the utilized disk space.

The Storage Configuration section displays the following fields:

Amount of storage to free in retirement

The Amount of storage to free in retirement filed displays the amount of storage to be deleted during retirement in percentage. By default, 20% of the events get archived or deleted when the disk usage reaches 100%.

Enable Auto System Retirement

The Enable auto system retirement option enables automatic retirement of the system when the storage space reaches 100%.

Log Retire Options

You can select either of the following options to retire logs:

  • Purge: This option deletes the records based on the percentage of disk usage as compared to a configurable predefined setting.
  • Archive to Remote Server & Purge from NMS Server: This option exports the records in the CSV format, transfers the records to a remote server, and then deletes the records from the FortiWLM MEA server. After you select this option, fill in the required fields manually or you can click the Copy from Maintenance link to emulate the remote server details from Maintenance, and click Save.
