Restore Data configuration

From this page, you can specify how near-line data should be restored to online data for selected datasets. If you have already moved data from a near-line to an offline archive, then you need to move it back to near-line status before it can be restored.

You can configure separate policies for restoring near-line to online status for the following Platform datasets:

o Alarms - includes all alarms stored in the Platform; Agent-generated and Platform-generated

o Events - includes all event stored in the database; Agent-generated and Platform-generated

o Cases - includes all closed case management records (if the Platform is licensed for Case Management).

The table shows the following information for the Platform's current archive policy:
