Just saw this ... > new (global) configuration option to limit size
+1 for the above. It would be useful to have similar functionality developed for cloud_usage as we have for alerts and events, see below: +----------------------+----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | name | description | +----------------------+----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | alert.purge.delay | Alerts older than specified number days will be purged. Set this value to 0 to never delete alerts | | alert.purge.interval | The interval (in seconds) to wait before running the alert purge thread | | event.purge.delay | Events older than specified number days will be purged. Set this value to 0 to never delete events | | event.purge.interval | The interval (in seconds) to wait before running the event purge thread | +----------------------+----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------+ -----Original Message----- From: Rohit Yadav [mailto:rohit.ya...@shapeblue.com] Sent: Tuesday, January 06, 2015 6:22 AM To: users@cloudstack.apache.org Subject: Re: How to reduce the size of the cloud_usage database Hi David, There is no official way to reduce the size of the cloud_usage database as it gets populated from the cloud database. Can you share why you want to reduce it? Are you're facing any MySQL performance issues? If your DB size is causing problems we could work with you to develop a new (global) configuration option to limit size or an API to limit past/historic data.
