Set Instance Limits in Business Objects XI R2
In a previous post I mentioned previously How to Manage Instances in Business Objects XI R2, well – that’s only half of the story – rather than having to go and delete old instances yourself it’s far easier to have Business Objects tidy up after itself. This is one of the few scheduler-related features that can be found in the CMC under “Settings” and “Limits” allows you to specify…
- The maximum number of instances to be maintained (anything above will be deleted).
- How many instances should be kept for each user/group (I choose Everyone).
- How many days these instance should be kept for each user/group (again, I choose Everyone).
Please note that the excess instances do not get deleted immediately after the change, in my case it seemed to happen by the next day so do be patient! This will really help to cut down the size of your FRS and may disaster recovery much easier.
