How can be deleted old information?

[CommunityUser]

The application is using a lot of disk space so it is necessary to wipe it out.

Thanks.

Hello sroja,

  Are you referring to application in Controller UI, you can delete old information in controller using one of the following approaches:
1) Delete application with lot of historic data , But this will will delete all config all BTs and the action is not reversable:
http://docs.appdynamics.com/display/PRO12S/Application+Dashboard#ApplicationDashboard-ActionMenu (Delete)

2) You can change the lower controller events/snapshots/metrics retention settings which will flush the older data as per the updated retention settings:

The major parameters you need to set the retention period to lower values are for

events.retention.period
snapshots.retention.period
metrics.retention.period

Thanks,

Arun
