Device Report History The history log that is used to keep track of operations applied to the

-Restriction devices on your network will never be purged by the application. Therefore the history for all devices will continue to grow over time.

However, you can manually purge the history log by deleting the current history log, and creating a new empty history log in its place, as follows:

1Open Windows Explorer.

2Navigate to the following directory:

<install_dir>\data\com\coms\wsd\tns\baseapiprivate\transacti

onlog

<install_dir> is the directory where you installed 3Com Network Director.

3Delete the file called logging.mdb from this directory.

4Make a copy of the file called emptyLogging.mdb and rename it to be called logging.mdb

The above instructions will delete all Device History information and Live

Update Activity information from the current history log.

Custom Report Types Custom Report Types enable you to select the information you want to

report on from all available report columns.

Reports History A full history of generated reports is maintained by 3Com Network Director. You can view old reports and export them to CSV using the Report History feature. To aid identification of old reports, the historical reports are tied to the currently loaded map.
