Configuring quarantine management

You can configure EMS to delete quarantine records after a configured number of days.

You cannot use EMS to delete quarantined files from endpoints. To configure EMS to delete quarantined files from an endpoint after a specified duration, configure the <cullage> XML option.

To configure quarantine management:

1. Go to Quarantine Management > Files.
2. Click the Quarantine Management Settings icon on the toolbar.
3. Enter the number of days after which to delete quarantine records from EMS. EMS determines the age of the quarantined file as when its status was last updated. For example, if you configure the duration as 180 days, EMS deletes the quarantine record 180 days after the file was last updated.
