Re: [Hyperic-hq-discuss] UPtime or availablility of a platform and of a server

[Charles L. <cl...@hy...>]

If the client (agent) was down, then the server will consider the platform as being down.

It's a little bit tricky to answer your question regarding how long the data is being kept.  We compress the data and store avg/min/max over windows into different tables, each is set for different window size and range.  Overall, the oldest data in HQ will be purged after 1 year.  This is configurable in the database.

You can check the space by monitoring the database used by HQ :-).
