Database Maintenance

The amount of free disk space remaining on your PC for data collection to the database.

The location of HTML reports.

From this dialog box, you can launch the following operations:

Create a new database to write data from the network to.

Unless you want to get rid of the contents of a database entirely, you should always use the Clean Database application instead of deleting a database and creating a new one.

You may already have a valid Traffix Manager 3.0 database and want to purge it of data while preserving discovered agents, topology information, user-assigned attributes, event rules and report instances. See “Clean databases” on page 124 for more information.

Select an existing database (other than the database currently in use) as the current database.

Copy, delete and move databases.

CAUTION: You should never move or copy a database using ordinary file operations; for example, Windows NT Explorer. You should use the Move Database and Copy Database features from the Traffix Control Panel instead.

Change the location of the current destination of HTML reports.

Import Database. You can import a database that has been created by either Traffix Manager 2.0 NT or the dbexport utility in Traffix Manager 2.0 (NT and UNIX).

In this dialog box, you can view the following:

The status of the Traffix Server.

The location of the database which the Traffix Server is writing data to.

The current size of the Traffix Manager database. Data from the Collector, Reporter and Event List is stored in this database. You can specify the maximum amount of disk space which is used to store this data in this dialog box.

The amount of free disk space remaining on your PC for data collection to the database.
