in our AxDB database there have been a lot of changes made in the security configuration. Therefore the SECURITYOBJECTHISTORY table has grown very large.
As I understand it, this is the table which shows the entire historical record of each security change, the actual XML data of each change, and a ValidFrom and ValidTo date range.
Is it safe to delete data from this table or are there any concerns?
Is it safe to delete from SECURITYOBJECTHISTORY table?
Hi Tino,
I have found this table several times as one of the tables consuming a lot of database space. You can't directly interact with this table as it is not listed in the AOT. I would recommend against direct SQL attempts using scripts. I have looked at some details before and it will be tricky to perform cleanup without full understanding.
I reported this table to Microsoft before as candidate for possible cleanup or archiving.
I would recommend to log a support ticket in case you are over consuming database space and explain you would like to shrink the table.
