Description of retention policies which can be defined from the Settings section of Typhoon Test Hub.
The goal of retention policies is to provide greater control over the persistence of certain types of data over time.
With these settings, users can define periods during which certain data will be deleted.
If a retention policy is not defined, data will be preserved indefinitely.
Figure 1. Default view of retention policies
Retention policy can be defined for:
HIL usage - data logged when HIL devices are being used.
DUT usage - data logged when DUT devices are being used.
Setup usage - data logged when setups are being used.
Agent usage - data logged when agents are being used.
Computer hardware stats - data logged when computers are being used, as
well as hardware statistics data logged for computers that are being used and
data about the docker containers.
TTH server hardware stats - hardware statistics data logged for TTH
servers that are being used.
System event logs - data logged on system's action while using TTH. Event
log data are shown within the Event
history section.
For every retention policy listed above, the user can define the period for which data should be
preserved. The user needs to input a numeric value and choose the appropriate unit
(days/weeks/months/years). Once defined, the retention policy will be checked once per hour,
and data that meets the defined time criteria will be deleted.

If any of the policies is defined, it will be expanded in the default preview.
