Viewing the Junos Space Purging Policy and Purging Criteria

On the Purging Policy page, users with the role Super Administrator or System Administrator (or a custom user with the Purging Policy task assigned) can view the built-in purging policy and view and modify purging criteria and trigger conditions for Junos Space Network Management Platform and, if configured, for installed applications. In addition, users can enable or disable purging categories and view detailed information about the purging job on the Job Management page.

To view the purging policy, purging criteria, and trigger conditions:

On the Junos Space Platform UI, select Administration > Purging Policy.
