CCPM Expire old known profiled endpoints - script?

    Posted Oct 26, 2021 04:26 PM

    I understand that 6.10 includes the ability to expire known profiled endpoints after last seen, however we're not ready to jump onto this version at this time.

    Is there a way to do this via a script on older versions like 6.9? If so, anyone has something like this already made?

    TIA.

    We are running 6.9.6 and this option exists in the cluster-wide parameters under Cleanup Interval - 

    Profiled Known endpoints cleanup option
    FALSE

    However, unlike the Profiled Unknown devices, I do not see an individual option to set the cleanup interval - for example, the Profiled Unknown is set to 0 days by default, we use 45 days for this. My only guess would be if you set this to true, it would use the "Known Endpoints" cleanup option (default is 0 as well). 

    Maybe someone else can clarify this, but yes the option does exist in 6.9.

    The behavior of this feature changed in 6.10: release notes.

    The following changes in behavior impact the Cleanup Interval settings configured at Administration > Server Manager > Server Configuration > Cluster-Wide Parameters: (CP‑39233)
    - The known endpoints cleanup interval is based upon when the device was last seen.
    - The unknown endpoints cleanup interval is based upon when the device was last seen.
    - The profiled unknown endpoints cleanup interval is based upon either the time the device was last seen OR was last profiled, whichever is most recent.
    - Profiled Known endpoints cleanup option is based upon either the time the device was last seen OR was last profiled, whichever is most recent.

    But the feature was available in earlier versions.
