Database Aging Overview
The database aging policy option automates your database management tasks for records that may
otherwise overwhelm it. You can create, edit, delete and execute these policies in the DAP
Manager, accessible in
File -> Open -> System Services -> DB Aging , or from the Navigation
Window.
Figure 25-1. DB Aging screen
This screen displays a list of existing policies, by Name , Type, Description , and whether they are
Enabled (true/false). As with most managers, you can filter what appears with the selections you
make at the top of the screen. See
Filter Wildcards on page 738 for more information.
You can click
New , and when you select a policy Open, Delete or Execute it. Clicking a column
heading sorts the list based on that column. Click twice to change from an ascending to a
descending sort.
CAUTION:
Database aging policies run only on the scheduled intervals, so data this application collects can exceed
set limits between those intervals.
