The event data partitions are closed after one day, and no more events are written to them. Even though the duration for event data partitions is one day, a grace period of 10 minutes is given to accommodate events arriving late.
You can change the default value as necessary. To customize the grace time period to close a partition, perform the following steps:
Log in to the system as the root user.
Open the /etc/opt/novell/sentinel/config/configuration.properties file.
Edit the sentinel.events.online.opengraceminutes property to specify the desired value.By default, Sentinel does not set any value to this property. If no value is set, Sentinel considers10 minutes as the grace time period to close a partition.
Restart the Sentinel server.
