Deleting System Data

If the system data disk usage is higher than 95%, the system may become unavailable. To ensure that the system data disk can be used properly, you can configure automatic or manual deletion of system data by referring to this section.

The system data that is automatically or manually deleted is mainly the files temporarily stored on the data disk, including large historical session video files, local backup log files, and local backup system configuration files.

Deleted system data cannot be restored. Exercise caution when performing this operation.

Constraints

Data of a specific day cannot be deleted through Manual Deletion. You can delete the data before the date you select.

Prerequisites

You have the management permissions for the System module.

Configuring Auto Deletion
