We are going to do that - the Oracle performance guys were being a bit
proactive and got to it first :)
 
The bigger issue though is just trying to figure out what to I'm going
to break in the SLM Console or other places by archiving these records.
I also haven't really yet even looked at this in detail and I'm not sure
of a few things.  For example, how do I identify in SLM:Measurement
which records pertain to a request that has been resolved?
 
I'm sure it's possible - I just have been involved in other things
lately.

** 
If the push fields actions are causing table scans, why not index fields
referenced in the push fields if qualification queries? 4.5 million
records is not so much of a big deal?

        We are investigating some changes now - we've also done some
tuning via Oracle profiles (and by "we" I mean the dba's....).

        William:
        
        At one customer site, we added some indexes to help those Push
Fields If conditions and avoid the table scans.  SLM benefits quite a
bit from some DB tuning.  So does the DSL, but that's another topic. :)

        Bill,
         
        On my past two systems (that had SLM) we trashed anything in the
SLM:Measurement, older then 30 days and that was not tied to active
ticket. I think we were able to report, but I don't remember from where.

                It's Friday and I have some other stuff to finish today
so I haven't gotten too far into researching this yet - so I thought I'd
ask if anyone else has a solution for this already.
                 
                Problem: SLM:Measurement is gigantic.  We have 240,000
requests in HPD:Help Desk (IM 7.x) and 4,400,000+ SLM:Measurement
records.
                 
                My gut feeling is to just archive off all of the records
that are closed and refer the reporting people to that table when they
want to run reports; however, I have not yet investigated the
ramifications of doing this.
                 
                Has anyone else?
