Database Archive and Purge' Fails After Running April 2017 OS Update for CentOS 7
Scope
Version: Operating System updates performed on the Network Sentry appliance for CentOS 7 between May 4th and June 12th.
Solution
Version: Operating System updates performed on the Network Sentry appliance for CentOS 7 between May 4th and June 12th.
Issue: The Operating System Update installed a new version of mysql which requires an additional configuration setting. Without that configuration, the “Database Archive and Purge” task in System > Scheduler view will not purge and archive Event, Connection, and Alarm records. This behavior can eventually lead to disk space issues.
Workaround: Contact Bradford Support so a non-service effecting fix can be installed.
Solution: Addressed in Network Sentry 8.1.3 and above.
