PERSISTENT_EVENT_EXPIRATION - UEC configuration option

Description

The PERSISTENT_EVENT_EXPIRATION option specifies the length of time that persistent event records are retained in the UEC database.

Persistent event data refers to data collected and generated by UEC from the Universal Broker on remote platforms. This data is used to represent a sequence of events that have occurred over a period of time. Collected data includes persistent-routed UES events. This commonly is referred to as Universal Event Subsystem data.

The minimum length of time that records are retained is one hour.

Value

time is the length of time that persistent event records are retained before being deleted.

Valid values for time are a number followed by (optionally) one of the following suffixes:

  • s (seconds)
  • m (minutes)
  • h (hours)
  • d (days)

If a suffix is not specified, the number is assumed to indicate seconds.

(For example, if 3d is specified, the records are retained for three days before UEC deletes them.)

Note

If 0 is specified, persistent event records are not deleted.

Default is 60d.
