E-Z Audit automatically replaces old audits
with new once each time you scan, so there's no "housekeeping"
you need to perform.
However, there are times when you may want to
delete audits manually. Some examples might include:
-
You have retired a PC and the audit file
is now "orphaned"
-
You have renamed a PC and the old audit
is "orphaned"
-
You use the "Audit Once" option to have
E-Z Audit only audit one time and not again until the audits
are deleted.
The Delete Audits tool is what you would use
to handle these situations.
You can delete audits in different ways:
-
Delete by age. For example, delete
audits that are 30 or more days old.
-
Delete audits with by duplicate MAC
address. This is a great way to find renamed PCs.
-
Delete by PC name. Select one, some
or all PCs to delete.
You access the Delete Audits tool via the
Admin Console Edit menu, or from the Tools tab.
You can also delete individual PCs from the
Edit menu when you display an audit file for a particular PC at
any time.
It is recommended that you only delete audits
from the Admin console using either of these methods as opposed
to directly deleting audit files from the audit folder.
Using the built in deletion tools ensures that any associated
files for that audit are also purged.
