Configure Package Storage Expiration
Change the default package expiration time, as well as what to do with packages after they are downloaded by recipients. Within the IBM Aspera Faspex Web UI, go to Server > Configuration > Package Storage to view or modify your server's package expiration and deletion behavior. After modifying these settings, you must click the Update button to save your changes.
Configuration Option | Description |
---|---|
Packages expire | Once a package is uploaded to Faspex, the link to view the package will expire after the specified number of days. |
After packages are downloaded | Select from one of the following auto-deletion rules:
|
Allow all users to set their own delete setting on a package-by-package basis | Enable users to set package expiration when creating a new package. |
Important: The package storage location is your local docroot plus the directory
specified under your file storage settings. The source location is the remote node's
docroot plus the file share location.
Important: When a package is marked for deletion after download, any
packages that point to the files contained therein will not be accessible once the
original package is downloaded. This condition could potentially lead to forwarded
package files being inaccessible if they are forwarded before being downloaded by the
original recipient.
