How long can memory dumps be stored on disk when an upload is not possible?

Memory dumps are critical for diagnosing issues within applications and environments. When upload to a remote server or a management system is not possible, storing these dumps locally on disk becomes important for later analysis. The provided duration, which is two hours, allows sufficient time to attempt a retry of the upload process or to troubleshoot connectivity issues. This timeframe ensures that the data is preserved without overwhelming local storage resources or risking data loss due to expiration policies.

In environments where quick diagnosis is necessary, the two-hour window strikes a balance between operational efficiency and the practicality of retaining these dumps for analysis. This provides teams with enough time to resolve any upload issues while still managing local resources effectively.
