By default, Sentinel retains the event associations data that is present in the exported associations (/var/opt/novell/sentinel/data/eventdata/exported_associations) directory for 14 days.
NOTE:Event associations data is available only in traditional storage.
However, you can change this retention period by performing the following steps:
Log in to the Sentinel server as the novell user.
Open the /etc/opt/novell/sentinel/config/configuration.properties file.
Add the following line in the file:
sentinel.exportedAssociations.retention.period=<retention period>
For example, if you want to set the Export Association files retention period to 90 days:
sentinel.exportedAssociations.retention.period=90
Save the modified configuration.properties file.
Restart Sentinel.
