An administrator has a new standalone Guardium appliance that will be placed into production next week. The appliance will monitor traffic from a number of databases with a high volume of traffic. The administrator needs to configure the schedule to ensure the appliance internal database does not get full with incoming data.

Which data management function does the administrator need to configure?

A. Purge

B. Data Export
C. Data Restore
D. System Backup

The quickest way to reduce the DB % Full is to induce a purge of some older data now.

Example – If you have “Purge data older than 30 days” set currently, and presuming you have all necessary backups and Archives of your system and you are happy to attempt to purge off slightly more data now

Note: The DB filling up can be caused by the following – amongst other things
* Spikes in the data being captured
* A policy setting that allows too much data to be logged in the Internal Database
* Keeping too much data on the Internal Database
* Collecting data from too many Databases (STAPs)
