How long are memory dumps typically retained based on the ActiveGate configuration?

Memory dumps are typically retained for a duration that aligns with the specified settings of the ActiveGate configuration, and the standard retention period is often set to 7 days. This duration allows for a balance between maintaining useful diagnostics and managing storage efficiently. Retaining memory dumps for one week provides sufficient time for analysis during incidents without overwhelming system storage capacities.

The choice of a 7-day retention period is usually tailored to the operational needs of environments where quick diagnostics and issue resolution are favored. It ensures that relevant data is available for troubleshooting and performance monitoring while also adhering to best practices in data management, particularly in terms of storage space and resource allocation.
