Also, I'm not clear on the significance of the EL archive directory. Can
you remind me/direct me to documentation? Well, the logs just record the incoming pipeline of events, we have used them to troubleshoot operational issues in the past but the bulk of data analysis in EL happens from data stored on database.

Hello,
To comply with our privacy policy we are going to purge logs in 1002 that are older than 90 days. Please let us know whether this is an issue. We hope to have these changes done by the end of next week.
A concrete example:
Logs in, for example, the eventlogging archiving directory:
@stat1002:/a/eventlogging/archive$
will be restricted to the last 90 days.
Thanks,
Nuria
