right now this process has generated over 100GB of dated files. We need to decide how to cull. I think I have this elsewhere on this wiki as well...

I can't think of a good automated process for now, so I propose:

* for a month, keep the latest file each day
* {{S:\MED\MED_CCMED|CCMDB\PHI\PHI_CSV_Archive}}
* for a year, keep on file on days that divide by 10 (eg May 20).
* forever, keep the last one per year.


Trish, is that OK?

Centralized data Backup

Centralized_data.accdb and PHI.mdb live on an eHealth server and so are backed up by them (#eHealth file shares). We also created dated snapshot backups every time the data processor pulls data as part of vetting and then pushes it again. For details, see

Centralized backup locations

Following directories:

  • M:\​Backup\Centralized_data (full address: \\ad.wrha.mb.ca\wrha\HSC\shared\WRHA\WRHA_CCMED\Backup\Centralized_data)
  • M:\​Backup\PHI (full address: \\ad.wrha.mb.ca\wrha\HSC\shared\WRHA\WRHA_CCMED\Backup\PHI)
  • S:\MED\Med_CCMED\​CCMDB\PHI\PHI_CSV_ArchiveS:\MED\Med_CCMED\CCMDB\PHI\PHI_CSV_Archive

Retention

We only retain backups for a time. See Culling backups for details.

eHealth file shares

All our file shares are backed up by eHealth. To restore any files missing from a file share contact the help desk. Their retention schedule as of 2019-12 is:

Daily Bi-Weekly Monthly
Data Category Backup Type Retention Period Backup Type Retention Period Backup Type Retention Period
DEFAULT - ALL local drives (default excludes below data categories) I 4W     F 6M
File Shared I 4W     F 12M
