Disabling data archive for a server

1. Go to AR System Administration > AR System Administration Console > General > Server Information.
2. On the Configuration tab, select the Disable Archive option.
   

If multiple AR System servers use a single database, you can disable archiving on all the servers except one if you want archiving to take place on only one server. If the server is a member of a server group, configure the server group in the AR System Server Group Operation Ranking form to make sure that only one server performs the archiving operation. For more information, Configuring-server-groups.

Errors are logged in the arerror.log file. Because there is no API, there is no entry in the API log file.
