DCLOGS_CLEANUP_LIMIT_IN_MONTHS

This parameter is shipped in the Portal software and is listed in the Add Advanced Parameter window.

Scope: This parameter can be set for all data collectors or for a specific data collector level.

Default value is 6 (indicating 6 months). Value can be any positive integer. The aptare_agent service runs a logs cleanup task on service startup and after every 24 hours from the current run. Cleanup task deletes DC Logs under <AnalyticsHome>/mbs/logs folder, which are older than the configured value at the time when Cleanup task runs.
