The Purge Historical Data action lets you purge SharePoint activity and storage datawhich is captured by the ControlPoint Discovery process and is used in analyzing historical datafrom the ControlPoint Services (xcAdmin) database.
Data is purged from one farm per operation, and you can specify how many months' worth of data you want to retain.
IMPORTANT: Once data is deleted from the xcAdmin database it cannot be recovered and will no longer be available for inclusion in future ControlPoint activity and storage analyses. Therefore, it is recommended that you back up the database before performing this operation.
To purge activity and storage data:
1From the Manage ControlPoint panel, choose ControlPoint Management > Purge Historical Data.
2Select the Farm from which you want to purge historical data.
