Disk Space Control
Disk space of the FortiWAN Reports is being consumed by increasing report database. Once the disk space is used up,
Reports will fail to continue log processing. Disk Space Control monitors the disk space status of Reports and triggers
actions (purge and alert) according to user-defined conditions. Click Settings > Disk Space Control to enter the Disk
Space Control settings page.
Purge old data from database
The Purge function is triggered by two conditions, day duration and percentage of free disk space. It will purge the old
data from database when any of the two conditions is satisfied. This function purges data from database without data
backup. Please refer section of Reports Database Utility in Advanced Functions for more information about database
backup (See "
").
Days
:
Enter the number of days for the duration. When database data exceeds the day dur-
ation, Reports keeps the latest data of the day duration in database and purges the
earlier data. Leave the field empty if you want disable the condition.
Percentage (%)
:
Enter the percentage. When disk free space is less than the percentage of total disk
space, Reports purges the earlier data from database to keep disk free space more
than the amount. Leave the field empty if you want disable the condition.

Send Alerts
The alert function is triggered by two conditions, day duration and percentage of free disk space. It will alert
administrator via email when any of the two conditions is satisfied. Settings > Email Server must be configured to
ensure the notification (See "

base data exceeds the day duration. Leave the field empty if you want disable the con-
dition.

data being purged, if you need to backup the data (via Reports database tool) in advance.
