OneStream Architecture and Technical Support blog

OneStream MarketPlace provides   Log Cleaner tool to clean logs. You can select which type of activity to clean such as User Login, Task etc Some companies will run this every quarter and only retain minimum (30 days) logs while cleaning up all types except for user logon activity. If you are a public traded company, please use caution when clearing the error log, since this is where the system dashboard for Software Version Audit gets its information.  This can cause an issue with audit. Also, there is a default setting on your servers and those may be set low out of the box. 

OneStream Administrators can perform certain DIY (Do It Yourself) functions, that can be downloaded from the MarketPlace, called System Diagnostics Overview. This gives you the ability to diagnose metrics and data volumes that can effect your performance. You can perform Environment Analysis, Application Analysis, Task Analysis, and live monitoring.  You can also schedule snapshots, that can be analyzed at your convenience.  Another major feature is the ability to recycle applications servers.  This gives you the additional insight  for keeping a healthy environment for your end user community. Good Luck downloading and using it !!
