Server Properties (History Page)

Use this page to set a default value for the number of copies of report history to retain. The default value provides an initial setting that establishes report history limits for the report server instance. You can vary these settings at the report level.

Options

  • Keep an unlimited number of snapshots in report history
    Select this option to retain all report history snapshots. You must manually delete snapshots to reduce the size of report history.
  • Limit the copies of report history
    Select this option to retain a set number of report history snapshots. When the limit is reached, older copies are removed from report history to make room for newer copies.

    If you limit report history later, when the existing report history exceeds the limit you specify, the report server reduces the existing report history to the new limit. The oldest report snapshots are deleted first. If report history is empty or below the limit, new report snapshots are added. When the limit is reached, the oldest snapshot is deleted when a new report snapshot is added.
