SAP Note 807615 - Removing/archiving of non-expired messages

Component : Messaging System -

Summary :
The SAP XI AF Messaging service's database faces issues with message retention due to non-expirable preset retention times. This causes the database to reach full capacity, impeding message deletion or archival. SAP XI Messaging ensures messages persist based on a timestamp for an assignable 30-day default duration for monitoring and redundancy checks. Users are advised to pre-emptively modify these settings upon anticipating heightened traffic, thereby adjusting the retention settings for newer messages accordingly. SAP offers a mechanism via a user interface from XI 3.0 SP11 onwards to manually reset message retention periods for older messages, enabling immediate deletion or prior archival. This feature is accessible via a provided URL where users can modify the retention limit to facilitate database reorganization.
