You can archive the logs of Retention Review actions by using the option on tab of the retention pair’s Statistics dialog box. You might want to archive the logs in order to free disk space. Archived logs are saved in a compressed .zip format.
The selected log files are zipped together, and the archive file is stored in the C:\ProgramData\Dynamic File Services\Pairs\<guid>\Reviews\ folder. The default file name is ReviewHistoryArchive plus a time stamp of when the archive file is created:
ReviewHistoryArchiveYYYYMMDD-hh.mm.ss.zip
The time stamp gives the year, month, day, hour, minute, and second information. The year is based on the Gregorian calendar of 12 months. Time is given in a 24-hour clock based on the computer time.
To archive one or more Retention Review log files:
In the Management Console, connect to the DynamicFS server that you want to manage.
Click the folder under the server to view the list of pairs for the server in the right panel.
Double-click the retention pair to open its Statistics dialog box.
Click the tab to view a list of the Retention Review log files.
Select one or more logs that you want to archive, then click .
The archive file is automatically created and saved. The log entries no longer appear in the list.
(Optional) In a file browser, go to the C:\ProgramData\Dynamic File Services\Pairs\<guid>\Reviews\ folder to verify that the .zip file was created.
You can restore an archived log file to the C:\ProgramData\Dynamic File Services\Pairs\<guid>\Reviews\ folder in order to make the log available for viewing again on the tab of the Statistics dialog box. Export the desired log from the .zip file to the C:\ProgramData\Dynamic File Services\Pairs\<guid>\Reviews\ folder. To view the log file’s information, open the retention pair’s Statistics dialog box and go to the tab, then select the number-of-files link for the log.
