Tadeu, You could schedule an Archive on the Server Event form and just delete records without putting them into an Archive form.
Since you have a large number of records, you could do this in batches to delete smaller chunks at a time and this also could be done after hours...

I'm facin' a serious problem with "Alert Events" table. Since 2004 it's been growing without control... Nowadays, this table has around 7 GB... I want to know if have a way that I can delete all records of this table with a security mode (not crashing the server)... Could it be with Escalations? If Yes, how? With Application-Delete-Entry? Application-Query-Delete-Entry?? I thought in a way to delete records based in a range of date... Like taking the date of First record saved in this table and going to deleting month by month (in a range of a month/day)... Is it possible?? Gimme your suggestions, please! Thankx-in-advance... Regards... P.S.1: I have knowledge tha exists the Escalation "CleanUpAlertEvents" but I think that this way will crash my ARS server if I runs it... P.S.2: I have another tables like that... but Alert Events is the greater...
