Welcome back to AWIPS Tips! It has been a while since we have talked about the backend portion of AWIPS – EDEX. For a brief introduction, please check out this previous entry of AWIPS Tips about EDEX. Today we are going to cover the important topic of data retention. Being mindful about data retention is important, because data can take up a significant amount of space on your server. Sometimes, that is what is expected and desired – in the case of having a long archive (longer than 5 days perhaps). But, if we're unprepared for the amount of data that will be kept, it can end up causing all kinds of problems that can be hard to track down, and the root of the cause is your machine is running out of disk space.
