Retention policies, as Debbie mentioned, are how you do this. But the first four columns - for original, 5-minute, hourly and daily samples - do not control IM's chart files; they affect how long data of each resolution is kept in the external database, if you're using it. The last setting - 'chart data' - is what controls data collection on the server. By setting that to 'None' you tell IM to stop collecting data for any dataset using that policy. You don't need to mess with policy rules at all, though, since we provide a built-in policy called 'None' that tells IM not to collect anything for a particular dataset. Open a map, switch from map/list view to dataset view, then select all devices and hit space to check all their boxes. In the right pane you'll see a list of all datasets for those devices, and what policies they're using. If there's anything you no longer want to collect, set it to None. ----------- David Schnur Development Lead http://intermapper.com -------------------- m2f -------------------- Read this topic online here: http://forums.intermapper.com/viewtopic.php?p=4266#4266 ____________________________________________________________________ List archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/intermapper-talk%40list.dartware.com/ To unsubscribe: send email to: intermapper-talk-...@list.dartware.com
