Usage Data Maintenance

FlexNet Manager for Engineering Applications provides functionality that enables you to automate control of usage data retention and cleanup using the Usage Data Maintenance screen. To ensure that there is no conflict between running the data cleanup service and running aggregation, note the best practices described in this section.

Usage data maintenance is not enabled by default. To enable usage data maintenance, you select the data tier for which you want to enable the cleanup service in the Usage Data Maintenance screen:

Report Log Usage Data
Hourly Aggregation Usage Data
Daily Aggregation Usage Data
Monthly Aggregation Data

For each tier selected, you specify how long data should be retained before it is deleted.
