purgeauditevents

purgeauditevents

Purges all Enterprise Data Lake user activity events from the audit database. Optionally purges project history events from the audit database.
For more information about the events logged in the audit database, see the
Informatica 10.2.2 Enterprise Data Lake Administrator Guide
.
The infacmd edl purgeauditevents command uses the following syntax: 
purgeauditevents

<-DomainName|-dn> domain_name

<-UserName|-un> user_name

<-Password|-pd> password

[<-SecurityDomain|-sdn> security_domain]

[<-ResilienceTimeout|-re> timeout_period_in_seconds]

<-ServiceName|-sn> service_name

<-AuditDataRetentionPeriod|-rp> audit_data_retention_period_in_weeks

[<-PurgeProjectHistoryEvents|-phe> true|false]
The following table describes infacmd edl purgeauditevents options and arguments:
Option
Argument
Description
-DomainName
-dn
domain_name
Required. Name of the Informatica domain. You can set the domain name with the -dn option or the environment variable INFA_DEFAULT_DOMAIN. If you set a domain name with both methods, the -dn option takes precedence.
-UserName
-un
user_name
Required if the domain uses Native or LDAP authentication. User name to connect to the domain. You can set the user name with the -un option or the environment variable INFA_DEFAULT_DOMAIN_USER. If you set a user name with both methods, the -un option takes precedence.
Optional if the domain uses Kerberos authentication. To run the command with single sign-on, do not set the user name. If you set the user name, the command runs without single sign-on.
-Password
-pd
password
Required if you specify the user name. Password for the user name. The password is case sensitive. You can set a password with the -pd option or the environment variable INFA_DEFAULT_DOMAIN_PASSWORD. If you set a password with both methods, the password set with the -pd option takes precedence.
-SecurityDomain
-sdn
security_domain
Required if the domain uses LDAP authentication. Optional if the domain uses native authentication or Kerberos authentication. Name of the security domain to which the domain user belongs. You can set a security domain with the -sdn option or the environment variable INFA_DEFAULT_SECURITY_DOMAIN. If you set a security domain name with both methods, the -sdn option takes precedence. The security domain name is case sensitive.
If the domain uses native or LDAP authentication, the default is Native. If the domain uses Kerberos authentication, the default is the LDAP security domain created during installation. The name of the security domain is the same as the user realm specified during installation.
-ResilienceTimeout
-re
timeout_period_in_seconds
Optional. Amount of time in seconds that infacmd attempts to establish or re-establish a connection to the domain. You can set the resilience timeout period with the -re option or the environment variable INFA_CLIENT_RESILIENCE_TIMEOUT. If you set the resilience timeout period with both methods, the -re option takes precedence.
-ServiceName
-sn
service_name
Required. Name of the Enterprise Data Lake Service for which to purge events.
-AuditDataRetentionPeriod
-rp
audit_data_retention_period_in_weeks
Required. Number of weeks before the current calendar week for which to retain event data. The command does not purge data for the current calendar week.
Specify 0 to retain data for one calendar week and purge prior log data.
Specify 1 or greater to retain data for n + 1 calendar weeks and purge prior log data.
For example, if you specify 1, the command retains data for two calendar weeks when it performs the purge.
Minimum is 0.

true|false
Optional. Purges project history events from the audit database.
Set to true to purge project history from the audit database.
Default is false.
