Archiving and updating the database (2)
You should periodically update your database by removing past events,
then saving these events in an archival database.
Do so by first pausing the server processes and then selecting
option 2 (Archive and update calendar database) from the
Calendar Administration screen. If you do not do this, the
calendar database may become extremely large, degrading system
performance.
The default expiration time is 30 days; that is, each time you choose this option all events that are over 30 days old are removed from the current database and stored in the archival database.
To archive and update the database, follow these steps:
The data is archived in the directory /usr/lib/sco/oadb/date, where date is the expiration date of the events you archived. Press <Return> to return to the Calendar Administration menu.
