Hi Momen Samy,
As correctly stated in reply Steven Marchetti in the post , by default, the NetBotz will only store up to 24 hours of data. See, for example, this screenshot:
But, as stated in the post Netbotz 500 challenges on APC forum:
6. You can designate any NFS or Windows CIFS/SMB share as external storage for the NetBotz 500. This is done in the Advanced View, under the section for External Storage (in your Configuration perspective). It will ask you to specify the type of share you are going to use, and then to provide the IP/hostname, credentials, and share name of the specified network location. Although the data will be stored externally to the NetBotz appliance, you are still only able to access historical alerts or graphs via the NetBotz Advanced View. You can view past information in the Alerts View or the Graph View. You'll notice that once you configure external storage, the time frame that is available for viewing will increase from multiple hours to multiple days or months.
With respect.

Hi Momen,
If you look at the individual sensors, you'll see that 8 hours is the default. The maximum setting is 1 day as seen here:
To get more data storage, the preferred method would be to use this in conjunction with StruxureWare Data Center Expert (DCE) where you will be limited only by the size of the drives on the system or external repositories should you be using one.
You can use a USB drive on a 570 directly as well as using a network share when configuring the "External Storage" optuion. Should the appliance reboot however, some data may be erased whereas using DCE that will not happen.
Thanks,
Steve
