Image settings

Screenshots
are saved in the jpeg format. You can make the screenshot images
smaller by storing them in lower quality. You can also choose to
store them in grayscale format, which also makes the images
smaller.

Log retention period
|
|
Details
of the logged activity can be purged after a specified interval.
You can provide different retention periods for logged activity and
logged screenshots. For example, you can choose to store logged
activity for one month, but choose to store only one week's worth
of logged screenshots. This will still provide you with enough
details to run an analysis for the last month's activity, but not
to view logged screenshots older than a week.

you an estimate of the required disk space based on your earlier
selections.
