/  Yamcs HTTP API  /  Parameter Archive  /  Purge

PurgeΒΆ

Removes all the parameter archive data and related metadata. All the filling operations are stopped before and started after the purge.

The rebuild operation has to be called to rebuild the past segments of the archive.

Starting with Yamcs 5.9.0 the Parameter Archive is stored into a different column family parameter_archive. Storing data into a separate column family gives better performance and the Parameter Archive rebuild operations are less disturbing for the other data (TM, TC, Events...). If the archive is from a previous version of Yamcs, the purge/rebuild can be used to move the parameter archive from the default column family to the separate column family.
