Disabling collection for specific client

Just been posed a question which I do not believe can be done, but will bow to superior knowledge.

Is it possble to disable collection for a specific client?

Reason the secific client is running backups every 15 mins and the result is the DPA database is filling up.

Thanks in advance

Martin.

Hi Martin,

Yes you are correct that you cannot disable collection from certain clients that are configured on a backup server.

In order to work around the issue of the database filling up from this client, you could configure an aggressive Datamine Maintenance Plan and just assign it to this client in DPA. e.g. for everything else keep the data for 1 year, and for this client create a plan that deletes it after 1 week.

Thanks

David

David,

Thanks for prompt response. That was going to be my proposal as well, just wanted to check if there was a tweak available.

Regards

Martin.
