The more automation tasks the system performs, the more data will be retrieved and generated. Generally, the data includes the following two types:

Device data, such as configuration files, route tables, original CLI data, golden baseline data and parser data.

Task data, such as Qapp/Gapp execution logs, benchmark/discovery execution logs, One-IP table entries and so on.

The system provides the definitions of auto-clean rules for the above two types of data at the domain level. The default settings are as follows:

To customize the auto-clean rules for your domain data, do the following:

1.Log in to the Domain Management page.

2.In the Domain Management page, select Operations > Domain Settings > Global Data Clean Settings from the quick access toolbar.

3.On the Global Data Clean Settings tab, make modifications based on your needs.
