Drop History Segments Job

The drop history segments job drops the history segments that the smart partitioning process creates when you run a segmentation policy. If you want to create a subset of history segments for testing or performance purposes, you must drop the original history segments.

Before you create a subset of the history segments, you must clone both the application database and the ILM repository. You must also create a copy of the ILM engine and edit the

conf.properties

file to point to the new ILM repository. Then you can create a segment set that contains the segments you want to drop and run the drop history segments job.

Provide the following information to run this job:

SourceRep: Source connection for the segmentation group. Choose from available source connections.
SegmentationGroupName: Name of the segmentation group that contains the history segments you want to drop. Choose from available segmentation groups.
SegmentSetName: Name of the segment set that contains the history segments you want to drop.
GlobalIndexTablespaceName: Name of the global index tablespace.
EstimatePercentage: The sampling percentage. Valid range is 0-100.
Default is 10.
ParallelDegree: The degree of parallelism the ILM Engine uses to drop history segments.; Default is 4.
