Configuring how much hard drive space Observer Infrastructure uses

Observer Infrastructure stores its trending and polling data on the hard drive in the C:\Program Files\ObserverInfrastructure\Logs directory. A separate directory is created for each device group and route. Inside of each of those directories is where all of the data is kept. With autopolling enabled it is possible that a lot of data could be collected. If you find that too much data is being stored, you can configure how much data to keep. Another option may be to reduce the polling interval. See “Using the Polling feature” for details.

The data is also used to create all reports. Some reports use the original poll data, while others use hourly or daily statistics (the trending data). The statistics take up much less space.
