When does Archer send DB storage usage messages?
-
At 80% and more usage: When a client's Archer Instance Database reaches 80% utilization of their purchased limit, Archer sends a Warning notification email to all users with the Sysadmin role. This notification is sent once each day until the corrective action has been taken to bring the utilization under 80%.
-
At 100% usage: When the instance DB crosses 100% of the utilization, then an [Urgent] Warning message is sent.
What do I do if I receive a DB storage limit notification?
Remediation measures include:
-
Purchase additional DB storage SKUs
-
Update the Archer configurations that contribute to excessive DB storage utilization. Contact Archer Technical Support to review your configurations.
How is the storage limit calculated?
Archer SaaS clients are offered a fixed storage of 50GB as part of the SaaS bundle purchase. If you require additional disk space for the database, you can purchase additional storage in tranches of 25GB each. This limit is allocated to each Instance/PIN on a client account.
total licensed database storage = base storage (50 GB) + additional storage (25GB x quantity of additional storage units purchased)
For example, if a SaaS client purchases 5 units of additional storage, then their licensed database storage limit is calculated as: 50GB + (25GB x 5) = 175GB.
What are the SKUs for the storage types?
The SKUs for the storage types are defined in the following table.
Storage type | SKU | Description |
---|---|---|
Archer SaaS Bundle | ARC-SAAS | Default SAAS SKU provides 50 GB space |
SaaS Archer AddOn Storage 25 GB | SAAS-GRC-STORAGE-S | 25 GB add on Storage for Instance database |
