data retention

[danieloo]

Hi we need a rsyslog server that is easy to use, we allready are using nagiosxi for our main monitoring.
Nagios Log server looks very promising howerver I cna't seem to find the data retention ??
For our line of work and commitments to our suppliers and customers we need to save certain data for 6 months.
whilst other data is only a few weeks..

Data retention can be found and adjusted from (Administration > Backup & Maintenance > Delete indexes older than _____.) Does this answer your question?

Great, If you have any questions on these options, Indicies, close vs. delete, etc, let us know, I'm going to lock this thread for now.
