NC4 - E Team - R9.8 Configuration Documents - Archiving Configuration

E Team Data Archiving allows users with proper rights to configure the system to archive data by date range, based on Last Modified Date/Time, or by the Event Name based on event relationship. 

Archiving does not remove the documents from the database, but rather removes the documents from active viewing. Standard reporting tools may continue to be used to retrieve data stored in archived documents. Archived documents can be restored to the same state as when they were archived. This is done document-by-document based on need.

A user needs to have the ETeam System Admin and ETeam Data Archiver privileges to be able to create an Archiving Configuration.

Creating Archiving Configuration

There can be only one archive configuration in the system at any given time. It can be edited as many times as required but only after archiving is complete with one configuration can a new one be created.

It is strongly recommended that a backup of the database be taken, and that the backup location be noted on the Archiving Configuration document for future reference.

1. Log into the E Team application.
2. From the system menu, select Administration > Archiving Configuration.
3. Click the Create button to create a new Archiving Configuration document.

Archive by Event

All documents with relationship to the specified Event, regardless of status, will
be archived along with their history. For example a document related to LA Quake
2011 with a status of Green will be archived, as well as, a document with direct
relationship to an Incident that is related to the LA Quake 2011.

Archive by Date

Only documents that have an internal status of Deleted that fall within the specified date range, along with their entire history will be archived. For example, a document with Last Modified that falls within the specified date range but with internal Status Active, including a visible status Blue-Closed, would NOT be archived.
