NAME
spong-cleanup - perform nightly maintenance to the spong databaseSYNOPSIS
spong-cleanupDESCRIPTION
This program performs routine, regular maintenance of the spong database.- •
- Cleans out any history older then 7 days. It moves the old history for each host into the $SPONG_ARCHIVE directory. If you don't think you would ever want to get at that history, then you can just change the script so that it is deleted.
- •
- * Removes any acknowledgements that are no longer valid.
- •
- * Removes any services that don't seem to be reported any more (if you stop monitoring something on a machine - the old entry will still hang around and show up as purple).
The spong-cleanup program should be run every night as a cronjob. This will ensure that database queries are speedy especially the History Log displays.
