Administrator Help | TRITON AP-DATA | Version 8.3.x
When you install TRITON AP-DATA on the TRITON management server, you specify whether to use a local or remote SQL Server database.
If you specify a remote database, you have the option to enable TRITON AP-DATA archiving. (Archiving is automatically enabled when you use a local database.)
When you archive incidents, they are initially stored in a temporary folder. If you are using an remote SQL Server database, you must specify the folder to use before you can archive incidents. (This is done during installation.) Both the database and the TRITON management server must have access to the temporary folder.
If you do not configure these settings when you install TRITON AP-DATA, you cannot manually archive incidents. If you try, the TRITON Manager warns you that you have not fully configured archive settings, so archiving won't work. If you set up automatic archiving, it fails and sends a message to syslog.
If you receive such messages, you must modify your installation to use the archiving feature, as follows:
1.
Rerun the Forcepoint installer.
2.
Next to TRITON AP-DATA, select Modify.
3.
Click Next until you reach the Temporary File Location page.
4.
Select Enable incident archiving and backup.
5.
Enter the local or network path that SQL Server should use to access the temporary folder.
 
* 
Important 
The folder must already exist.
6.
Enter the UNC path that the management server should use to access the temporary folder.
7.
Provide network credentials.
8.
Continue through the installation wizard.
9.
Click Deploy in the TRITON Manager to deploy your changes.
Note that you only configure the temporary archive folder in the installer. To configure the final location of the archive, select Settings > General > Archive Storage in the Data module of the TRITON Manager.
