I need to know how the databse clean itself the event coming from nodes ? More specifically, does somebody know how IM database clean itself event ? Does it after a period of time ? After a maximum number of event, or per serrver ? or anything else ?
By default the HP SIM database keeps everything. However, one can delete events manually in the web interface and one can create tasks to perform event deletion.
Page 553 of 760:Deletion of events Page 566 of 760:Creating a task to delete all cleared events Page 567 of 760:Creating a task to delete events older than 30 days.
To sum up, you can configure HP SIM to delete events after a certain period of time.
db maintenance : to keep a good performance of your HP SIM server. *Export (via reports) events and delete periodically *Delete â noisyâ events daily or weekly â Link up/down; Device Unavailable/Available; Authentication events
Hope it helps

My Sim installation had a default task to automatically delete after 90 days. I found that once I passed about 100 servers being monitored (with about 40% ilo) configured I needed to turn this on. Of course we are still using msde SQL 2000 with sim 5.1 .. Brandon
