The data about events registered in the system is stored in the Protocol table in Axxon PSIM (by default) or in the Protocol table of an individual database (see Extracting event protocol into an individual database).
The Event Viewer database is configured by means of the settings panel of the Computer system object.
Configure the Event Viewer database as follows:
- To disable events recording to the Event Viewer database, set the Disable logging checkbox (1). This setting is relevant only for the Server corresponding to the Computer object.
- If you want to log to the Event Viewer database only the events registered on this computer, set the Only local protocols checkbox (2). This setting is relevant only for the Server corresponding to the Computer object.
If this checkbox is set, then the Event Viewer database synchronization has to be started manually using the SyncProtocol.exe utility or a macro (see The SyncProtocol.exe utility to synchronize event log database and Example of macro to start the Event Viewer databases synchronization). In the Events archive length field, specify the time period in days for storing the event archive in the Event Viewer database (3). This setting is relevant only for the Server corresponding to the Computer object. To specify the time period for storing the event archive for all Servers in the distributed system, use the common settings in the Programming tab (see The Settings panel of the Security zone object). The value of the Events archive length parameter on the settings panel of the Computer object has the higher priority. If no value is specified in the Events archive length field on the settings panel of the Computer object, the value specified in the settings panel of the Security zone object is used.
Note
The specified Events archive length is also applied to the events received by the Incident server, which are stored in the PROTOCOL_INC_SERVER table of the Psim database.
Note
The process of clearing the database of the events older than the specified storage period is started by default every three minutes and deletes 100,000 events starting with the oldest ones.
- Click the Apply button to save the changes (4).
The events logging to database is now configured.
Note
You can also use the tweaki.exe utility to configure events logging (see the The Settings panel of the Axxon PSIM section).
