Software Distribution Monitoring Settings
Vector AM monitors all software distributions, and stores the installation feedback from each Client indefinitely. Use the Software Distribution Monitoring Settings dialog to control the monitoring of Distribution operations on the current Site and to specify how long you want to retain installation feedback from the Clients to which software packages have been distributed.
To specify the software distribution settings for your Site:
1 Select Enable software distribution monitoring to collect and record the installation data.
2 In the Purge feedback from clients field, type the number of days for which you want to retain distribution feedback in the offline area. Vector AM automatically deletes all data that is older than the specified number of days.
3 If you want to delete feedback data from distribution jobs that have been successfully completed or halted due to failure, click Purge completed jobs now. Vector AM deletes any completed jobs older than the number of days specified in the Purge database of completed jobs field.
4 If you want to delete feedback data from all distribution jobs regardless of whether the Client installations are complete, click the Purge all jobs now. The system deletes feedback data that is older than the number of days in the Purge database of all jobs field.
5 Select a Logging option to specify how much feedback is recorded in the Software Distribution logs by each Scheduler.
6 Click OK to close the dialog and save your changes.
