Managing file transfer data

As with meeting recordings and reports, files that are shared in the chat are stored in a Docker volume or a Kubernetes persistent volume. By default, you can download these files within 90 days.

You can modify the limit by updating the following files.

  • Docker
    • custom.env

  • Kubernetes

    • helm/values.yaml

      Note: The values are case sensitive and must be entered as shown below.

  • Modify the configuration file. The minimum value is 1.

    1. For Docker environments, update the FILES_EXPIRE_IN_DAYS parameter. For example, FILES_EXPIRE_IN_DAYS=77 to indicate 77 days.
    2. For Kubernetes environments, update the filesExpireInDays parameter. For example, filesExpireInDays: 77 to indicate 77 days.
  • Restart the Sametime server to apply the changes. For more information, refer to Starting and stopping servers.
