The settings listed within the settings page apply globally to all users of Nipper OmniSight and can be edited on the Settings page, which can be navigated to by using the link in the sidebar menu.
Here are all the settings that are editable in Nipper OmniSight.
Note: Settings is only available to users in the Administrators group.
Low Disk Space
This value, in GB, sets the threshold below which Nipper OmniSight will start displaying warnings about low disk space. Decimal values may be entered, e.g. 15.7GB.
E.g. if the disk that Nipper OmniSight is on has 14GB free space left and the setting is set to 15GB then a warning will be displayed to all users.
This threshold must be greater than 1GB and greater than or equal to the critical disk space threshold.
Critical Disk Space
This value, in GB, sets the threshold below which Nipper OmniSight will consider disk space to be critical. Decimal values may be entered, e.g. 15.7GB.
E.g. if the disk that Nipper OmniSight is on has 9GB free space left and the setting is set to 10GB then a critical disk space level has been reached.
When the disk space is critical, new assessments will not be performed and a warning will be displayed to all users.
This threshold must be greater than 1GB and less than or equal to the low disk space threshold.
Note: When the system is in a critical state, assessments are disabled.
Retained Assessment Results per Device
This limits how many assessment results are retained for each device within Nipper OmniSight. Assessment results are large so limiting the number stored in Nipper OmniSight can reduce disk usage.
If more assessment results than the limit are generated for a device then the oldest assessment results will be removed keeping only a summary of the assessment results within Nipper OmniSight. For removed assessment results, the reports table will not have the option to view the report.
When assessment results are removed from Nipper OmniSight this does not affect any assessment results that have been sent to SIEMs.
Changing this setting will not cause assessment results to be removed immediately. Assessment results for a device are only removed when a new result is generated for that device.
If the value is set to -1 then an unlimited number of assessment results are retained.
Increasing this setting from a smaller value to a larger value will not restore any assessment results that have been removed due to the previous smaller retention limit.
Reducing this setting from a larger value to a smaller value will require you, when you save, to acknowledge that deletion of assessment results may occur.
How long files to keep files before they are automatically deleted
This setting is how long before uploaded configuration files are automatically deleted. The default value is 24 hours, this can be increased to as high as 168 hours (1 week) or as low as 1 minute.
