Unable to change the size of the Intel® EMA logs

Resolution

Intel® EMA logs size instructions:


The process reduces the number of auditing days.

  • Go to Intel® EMA User Console with the Global Administrator account.
  • Select the Settings tab from the left blue menu.
  • Go to the Manageability Server tab.
  • Choose one of the two categories:
  1. Interval in hours before the cleanup of audit log records in the Intel® EMA database.
  2. Interval in days before the cleanup of audit log records in the Intel® EMA database.


Check the Intel® EMA Server options in section 9, Appendix – Modifying Component Server Settings, for more information.

 

Intel® EMA database fragmentation; the EMA application, by nature, makes several read and write requests to the Microsoft SQL database; it generates database fragmentation.

Our recommendation is to defragment the database periodically.

Section 4.7 - Periodic Database Maintenance of the Distributed Server Installation Guide provides the settings to perform this action.
