Logs purge

Configure how long to keep historical log entries base on the type of the entry or globally.

The log purge is done by the PurgeLogs automatic action.

We advise you to purge your logs so as not to overload your instance and avoid the keep all option.

You can choose the first option Change all to setup all entries at once.

Each field allows you to delete, keep or delete after a certain period (between 1 and 120 months).


General

  • Add/update relation between items

  • Delete relation between items

  • Add the item

  • Delete the item

  • Restore the item

  • Update the item

  • Comments

  • Last update

  • Plugins : retains or not the history of a plugin. For example, in the advanced dashboard, the history tab could be cleared.

  • Equipments refused by rules log : Rules can be put in place to refuse equipment when an employee is working remotely, for example. This history can be cleared.

An item is defined as anything that could be linked to a GLPI object (a contract, a document, a computer, etc.)


Software

  • Installation/uninstallation of software on items: add a new software

  • Installation/uninstallation versions on software: adding a new version of an existing software package to a GLPI object. For example, adding version 7.4 of PowerShell to a computer that already has PowerShell installed

  • Add/Remove items from software versions: This applies to Parc > Software. Multiple versions of the same software can coexist; here, we use OneDrive as an example. This option will clear the history of added versions from Parc > Software (without deleting the version itself, of course)

  • Add/remove groups to users

  • User authentication method changes

  • Disconnect a component: removing the connection between an existing component and another GLPI object

  • Connect a component: connecting an existing component to a GLPI object (for example, connecting an existing PCIe port in the database to a computer)
