Please tell me about EMS event log retention policy.

· What is the storage capacity of the EMS event log?

· What is the number of days to keep the EMS event log?

＜Storage information＞
Model: FAS 2650A
Ontap: NetApp Release 9.1 P5

I will post it for the first time.

Thank you.

Hi there,

Specifically to your questions based on that article:

- No maximum size (except root partition - several hundred GB)

- Kept for at most 5 weeks

Hope this helps!
