Cleanup %—percentage of total disk space purged on the file server when critical threshold is reached; default 20, range is 1 to 50
-
If required, use the Ignore List drop-down to choose a file specification to exclude from the global purge settings; see

To create an override policy, perform the following steps.
Note: You can add multiple directories to an override policy.
-
In the Override Policies panel, click ADD DIRECTORY. The Select Directory form opens.
-
In the Search Directories field, type all or part of the directory name and choose from the auto-complete list.
The directory is added to the list.
-
Configure the following parameters:
-
Allocated space—disk space allocated to the directory and subdirectories
-
Retention Period (Days)—maximum number of days before files are purged; default 100, range is 1 to 1500
-
Threshold %—percentage of disk space at which files are purged; default 90, range is 50 to 95
-
Cleanup %—percentage of total disk space purged on the file server when critical threshold is reached; default 20, range is 1 to 50
-
If required, use the Ignore List drop-down to choose one or more file specifications to exclude from the override policy purge settings; see
Ignore Lists for information.
Note: The file specification that you choose is used for a string search in the directory and subdirectories. For example, if the override policy names the /MyDir directory and you add an override for /MyDir/Temp, each file and subdirectory below /MyDir whose name begins with Temp is excluded from the override policy.
-
Click ADD & SAVE DIRECTORY.
