Configuration


Prerequisites


  • License: Content Age analysis is licensed as a separate module and not included in previous licenses. The new module is purchasable as an add-on for all currently active subscription licenses and new licenses.

  • DB Access: A minimum of Reader access is required on databases that should be analyzed.


Content Age Collection and Processing


  • Collection: Assuming that a License: Content Age data collection will only be performed if a valid license is found that includes the Content Age module.

  • Default Schedule: The collection is linked to the design analysis process. As such, it will adhere to its defined schedule as well. The default and recommended setting for design updates is "Weekly, on Saturday", but may be different in your installation. Please check the menu item [Settings] → [Database design re-scan options] for details. No automatic collection will happen before the scheduled time.

  • Schedule Customization: iDNA avoids accessing individual non-system DBs on a regular basis. That is why DB design is - per default - only re-scanned on weekends and then only if changed. Since this Content Age collection would connect to each Focus DB every week, we added a config parameter that allows specifying an interval in weeks that should pass between scans. Example: setting the ETL parameter "ia_profile_rescan_interval_weeks" to "2" will basically mean "Only scan every second week on Saturday". ETL parameters can be configured in the admin interface ([Settings] → [System configuration...]) in the menu item [Advanced Settings] → [ETL] → [ETL Properties].
  • (Re-)Collection can be triggered manually for one or more databases via the menu item [Settings] → [Design analysis status]. Note: if code analysis is licensed, using this option this will also trigger a re-collection and re-processing of design data. This may take a very long time, depending on the amount of databases to process. The regular scheduled scan on Saturday will only re-collect design data if changes in DB design occurred.

  • DB Scope: Content Age information will be collected from all Focus DBs (database categories "Application" and "Mail-in DB"), excluding files with the NTF extension.

  • Processing: Before collected data is visible in iDNA's user interface it needs to be processed by the nightly data warehouse update
