UCMDB includes a purging mechanism for managing old discovery result statistics. This mechanism enables faster display of discovery result statuses. That is, the old result records are merged and are therefore still available for the user. This feature is controlled by two system parameters:

• appilog.collectors.ResetDiscoveryStatisticsIntervalHours.name=Reset Discovery Statistics Interval by Hours. This property defines the interval of merging discovery results (the interval for running the purging mechanism).

• appilog.collectors.DiscoveryStatisticsArchiveDays.name=Discovery results statistics archive period. This property defines the number of days after which discovery results are archived (the number of days after which the statistics are considered old).
