HP XC System Software Administration Guide Version 3.1

You can specify a time parameter with the managedb purge command; sensor data older than the time
parameter is purged. The time parameter is the same as for the managedb archive command. See
“Archiving Sensor Data from the Configuration Database” (page 80) for a description of the time parameter.
The following command purges sensor data older than two weeks:
# managedb purge 2w
For more information on the managedb command, see managedb(8).
The archive.cron script enables you to automate the process of archiving sensor data from the CMDB.
For more information on this script, see archive.cron(4).
6.9 Dumping the Configuration and Management Database
Use the managedb dump command to display the contents of the configuration and management database,
table by table, in a form that you can read. There is a substantial amount of data; consider redirecting the
output of the managedb dump command to a file.
The --nologs option shortens the dump display by omitting log data.
For more information, see managedb(8).
