Core Business Services

> ## Handling long-term storage growth

> You can archive audit data using either the Audit Archive utility provided by OpenEdge or an archive tool you have developed. In both cases, audit data archiver privileges are required.

> If your long-term storage area grows too large, you can do any of the following (again, provided you have the requisite permissions):

> - Use the archive tool to truncate the data.

> - Use the archive tool to move the oldest audit data to a new OpenEdge database and then move that database to offline storage.

> - Archive the audit data tables and move the files to long-term storage. Then, use the archive tool to truncate the online audit data.

> - Develop a full set of audit reports for the oldest audit data and archive the reports. Then, use the archive tool to truncate the online audit data.
