Hi, We don't update the ovirt-engine-dwhd.conf directly. You need to add the new file to /ovirt-engine-dwhd.conf.d/ with the lines DWH_TABLES_KEEP_SAMPLES= DWH_TABLES_KEEP_HOURLY= DWH_TABLES_KEEP_DAILY=0 and set the values for how much time you want the data to be kept. Keep in mind that the dashboards use the information from the samples and hourly tables for the last 24 hours. This file will overwrite the default configurations after you restart ovirt-engine-dwhd.

Please see at the to of this section: "The following is a list of options for configuring application settings for the Data Warehouse service. These options are available in the /usr/share/ovirt-engine-dwh/services/ovirt-engine-dwhd/ovirt-engine-dwhd.conf file. Configure any changes to the default values in an override file under /etc/ovirt-engine-dwh/ovirt-engine-dwhd.conf.d/. Restart the Data Warehouse service after saving the changes." So you need to add a file under /etc/ovirt-engine-dwh/ovirt-engine-dwhd.conf.d/ The file name is not important. It should end with ".conf" Best regards, Shirly Radco BI Software Engineer Red Hat Israel Ltd. 34 Jerusalem Road Building A, 4th floor Ra'anana, Israel 4350109 On Wed, Jan 25, 2017 at 1:06 PM, Matt . <yamakasi.014(a)gmail.com&gt; wrote: > > Hi Shirly, > > The reason why I ask is because the explanation here: > > > https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en/red-hat-virtualization/4.0/sin... > > > 2017-01-24 10:49 GMT+01:00 Shirly Radco <sradco(a)redhat.com&gt;: > > Hi, > > > > We don't update the ovirt-engine-dwhd.conf directly. > > > > You need to add the new file to /ovirt-engine-dwhd.conf.d/ with the > > lines > > DWH_TABLES_KEEP_SAMPLES= > > DWH_TABLES_KEEP_HOURLY= > > DWH_TABLES_KEEP_DAILY=0 > > > > and set the values for how much time you want the data to be kept. > > Keep in mind that the dashboards use the information from the samples > > and > > hourly tables for the last 24 hours. > > > > This file will overwrite the default configurations after you restart > > ovirt-engine-dwhd. > > > > > > > > Best regards, > > > > Shirly Radco > > > > BI Software Engineer > > Red Hat Israel Ltd. > > 34 Jerusalem Road > > Building A, 4th floor > > Ra'anana, Israel 4350109 > > > > > > On Tue, Jan 24, 2017 at 11:43 AM, Matt . <yamakasi.014(a)gmail.com&gt; wrote: > >> > >> Shirly, > >> > >> I'm checking this out and aren't you sure the file is > >> update_time_to_keep_records.conf and not ovirt-engine-dwhd.conf ? > >> > >> 2017-01-09 14:01 GMT+01:00 Matt . <yamakasi.014(a)gmail.com&gt;: > >> > I think it did.
