Events, correlated events, and aggregation (or summary) tables can all be archived using SDM. There are several requirements for archiving:
The directory to which the partitions are archived must already exist on the database server (not the machine running SDM); SDM does not create the directory.
On UNIX systems, archiving cannot be to the /root directory.
On UNIX systems, the oracle user must have permissions to write to the archive directory.
On Windows systems, owner of the SQL Server Agent service must have permissions to write to the archive directory.
To archive partitions:
Select the Archive partitions tab.
Specify the number of days for which older partitions will be archived.
NOTE: You can specify the archive directory in the "Archive Destination" field in Partition configuration tab in SDM GUI.
Click Archive.
